I'm new & I'm hoping there's some sample code to help jumpstart my work.  I need to upload a CSV & place it in a KendoGrid using MVC. If possible, from the Select button, and not show the input Text box, and not show the Remove option, since it should place the file contents straight into the grid & then delete the file.  I didn't see anything in the Code Library showing how to upload a CSV & place it in a grid, but it seems like someone must have done this before me.  Any guidance is appreciated.

Hello Priyanka,

The Grid is managing the data using its dataSource, and the dataSource can receive data only in JSON, JSONP, or XML:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/framework/datasource/overview

We had a similar request in the past, but it was declined, as in this scenario I suggest converting the data from CSV to one of the supported formats:
