Use of Eval()

[Andy Green]

Hi

In all your example you use the Eval or Bind. I have just seen this article on why not to use Eval().

How would you bind data without using Eval or Bind.

Hello,

In most of the articles of that subject is explained how you could replace the call to the DataBinder.Eval and Eval calls. The common scenario is to use the Container.DataItem property and cast it to the specific for your case type. For example:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter EditCommandColumn column" UniqueName="EditCommandColumn" HeaderStyle-Width="100px" ItemStyle-Width="100px" AllowFiltering="False" Groupable="False" DataField="City">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <%# ((System.Data.DataRowView)Container.DataItem)["City"] %>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
