Can not enter text in filter row

[Chris Kirkman]

I have a RadGridView where I have one column already defined (in the designer).  At runtime, additional columns are added to the Grid.

I can type on the filter row for the pre-existing column; however for any new column added I can not.  I try to mouse click where I'd typically start typing my filter text and nothing happens. 

What's up?

The new columns are added this way.

m_grd.Columns.Add(new Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataColumn("Name", "Name"));

I should post more often.

When I added the new column I should have added it as a text column instead of a data column.

m_grd.Columns.Add(new Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewTextBoxColumn("Name", "Name"));

Hi Chris Kirkman,

Yes, you are right.

When you create an additional column manually, you should not use GridViewDataColumn. This class is the base class for all defined data columns (ex. GridViewTextBoxColumn). We have already considered this issue in our framework, therefore we will mark this class as abstract, so one would not be able to instantiate columns of this type.

All the best,
