Using SwapColumns for Autogenerated columns in Prerender causing Itemdatabound to execute twice

[cns]

Hi,

I am using autogenerated columns for my grid in which I need to swap columns. I have used "SwapColumns" in my "prerender" function. The problem is that my itemdatabound executes before (which is correct) and even after the prerender call has been made. I have checked and the issue is not because of a null datatable. Please could you provide me a solution for this as this problem was not encountered before.

Hi,

Try swapping the columns using the PageLoad event like this:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
       If RadGrid1.MasterTableView.AutoGeneratedColumns.Length > 2 Then
           RadGrid1.MasterTableView.SwapColumns("columnName1", "columnName2")
       End If
   End Sub
