Expression Editor without the Gridview

[ALAIN]

 I am trying to use your WinForms Expression Editor to validate a formula expression, directly into a Textbox.  I do require a list of fields, but I do not need the gridview. Is there anyway to dynamically pass the list of fields and have the editor show without the GridView?
  I have attempted with an invisible gridview, but this is rather ugly. Any hints?
  Thanks!

Hello Alain,

Thank you for contacting us.

We have a KB article which in my opinion is exactly what you are looking for. The article explains how to create a standalone RadExpressionEditorForm in the easiest way possible. You can find the article on the following url - http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/preview-article/winforms/forms-and-dialogs/create-standalone-radexpressioneditor-form.aspx.

I hope this helps.

Hi Arun,

Thank you for writing. 

On my side everything is working as expected, I am successfully building the projects and I am not having an an exception. I also performed tests with the latest assemblies. I am attaching my project in this thread, so you can test it and check how it runs on your side.

The following forum thread sheds some light as to where the exception might have come from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6958358/the-type-has-no-constructors-defined

I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.

Hello,

Thank you for writing.

Indeed the old version of your suite is the reason why you cannot build the project. Actually extensibility of the RadExpressionEditorForm was released with our Q3 2012 (version 2012.3.1017) , so if you would like to customize it or change its appearance, you would need to upgrade to at least that version. 

I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.
