    Adding additional power to RadGridView for Silverlight with attached behaviors

    PART III [example: Column Groups  A.K.A. Merged Column Headers]   Recently we have had a lots of requests for a feature referred as column groups / merged column headers / common headers for two or more columns - something like :   Here we have three ordinary columns ( L, W, H)  with regular column headers .

    Custom Filtering with RadGridView for Silverlight

    As you may already know, RadGridView received a "filtering" boost with our latest release. As a developer, you are no longer stuck with the default filtering user interface.
