Hello Saravanakumar,

In order to enable Filtering for GridTemplateColumn, you must set DataField property.
aspx:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="CloseOutName" HeaderText="CloseOutName">
. . .
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Thanks,
Princy.

Hello Saravanakumar,

I am not quite sure about your issue. Here is the sample code that I tried which worked as expected for both filtering and sorting.
aspx:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="CloseOutName" UniqueName="CloseOutName" HeaderText="CloseOutName" SortExpression="CloseOutName">
   <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="lblCloseOutName" runat="server" Text='<%# eval("CloseOutName") %>' ></asp:Label>
   </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy,
Again Thanks for your support.
My Issues is like The sorting is not working when am using the follwing templatecolumn.
If I place HeaderText in GridTemplateColumn then sorting  is working .

 

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn ReadOnly="true" SortExpression="CloseOutType" HeaderStyle-CssClass="xmediumcolsize" >
<HeaderTemplate>
<asp:Image ID="imgCloseOutType" ImageUrl="~/Images/closeout_type.png" runat="server" />

 <asp:Label ID="lblheaderCloseOutType" runat="server" Text="Interim/Workbook" ></asp:Label>

 </HeaderTemplate>

 <ItemTemplate>

 <div style="text-align:center">

 <asp:Label ID="lblCloseOutType" runat="server" Text='<%# eval("CloseOutType") %>'></asp:Label>

 </div>

 </ItemTemplate>

 </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Hello Saravanakumar,

Please set below property in your GridTemplateColumn and check because there is not any connection between headertext and sorting so.

let me know if any concern.

DataField="CloseOutType"

Thanks,

Hi Jayesh,
Thanks For your support.
In the GridTemplateColumn on the HeaderTemplate I am using the Label Control.
TO That label i am binding globalizesd values by Handling ItemDataBound event .
Code That I am on the ItemDataBound is given below

Private Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemDataBound

If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then
CType(e.Item.FindControl("lblheaderCloseOutType"), Label).Text = AssignlocalizedValue(TELERIKRADTREELIST_RADTREELLIST2_HEADER_CLOSEOUTNAME)


End IF
End Sub

So on binding like that, sorting is not working .

Here is headertemplate part code

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn ReadOnly="true"  HeaderStyle-CssClass="xmediumcolsize" >
<HeaderTemplate>
     <asp:Image ID="imgCloseOutType" ImageUrl="~/Images/closeout_type.png" runat="server" />
     <asp:Label ID="lblheaderCloseOutType" runat="server" Text="Interim/Workbook" ></asp:Label>
</HeaderTemplate>
