conditional formatting on detailtable in hierarchy

[Jeff]

I've got a 2 level hierarchical grid and I need to set the formatting of certain rows in the child level. I've tried puttting the conditional formatting elements in the itemdatabound event for the overall grid and also in the detailtabledatabind. In each case it has a hard time finding the data element that sets the condition and I get a "cannot find a cell bound to column name..."

Is there an example of how to set the format of a child row based on a data element within that row?

For example if the child row has a data element called "Level" and if level for that row is "3" then the data element called "Name" would be orange...


thanks for any guidance you can give

Hello Jeff,

You have to differentiate between the ownertableviews and then implement conditional formatting as shown below:
aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
runat="server" onitemdatabound="RadGrid1_ItemDataBound">
   <MasterTableView Name="Master">
       <DetailTables>
         <telerik:GridTableView AutoGenerateColumns="false" Name="Detail" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2">
          <Columns>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Level" HeaderText="Level" UniqueName="Level"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" UniqueName="Name"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
          </Columns>
         </telerik:GridTableView>
        ....

c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.Name == "Detail")
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            if (item["Level"].Text == "3")
            {
                item["Name"].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Crimson;
            }
        }
    }

Thanks
