[Łukasz Kuryło]

Hi all.
I have a code

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
            GridLines="None" onitemdatabound="RadGrid1_ItemDataBound">
            <MasterTableView AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">
                <Columns>
                    <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                        <FooterTemplate>
                            <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server">
                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid2" runat="server">
                                    </telerik:RadGrid>
                                </ItemTemplate>
                            </telerik:RadComboBox>
                        </FooterTemplate>
                    </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                </Columns>
            </MasterTableView>
        </telerik:RadGrid>
        <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
            ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:XConnectionString %>"
            SelectCommand="SELECT [Name] FROM [Projects]"></asp:SqlDataSource>

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridFooterItem)

{

GridFooterItem footer = (GridFooterItem)e.Item;

RadComboBox combo = ((RadComboBox)footer.FindControl("RadComboBox1"));

RadGrid grid = ((RadGrid)combo.Items[0].FindControl("RadGrid2")); //result is null             //RadGrid grid = ((RadGrid)combo.FindControl("RadGrid2")); //result is null

string r = "fF";

}

}

The question is how can I get reference to RadGrid2?

Hello Lukasz,

Your code works fine in my end when adding a RadComboBoxItem for RadComboBox. Give a try by adding RadComboBoxItem and see whether it helps you.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
  <FooterTemplate>
     <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server">
         <ItemTemplate>
                <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid2" runat="server">
                 </telerik:RadGrid>
         </ItemTemplate>
         <Items>
           <telerik:RadComboBoxItem />
         </Items>
      </telerik:RadComboBox>
  </FooterTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
