Access the filtered items on a RadGrid

[john]

Hello,

I'm hoping there's an elegant way to access just the filtered items on a RadGrid.  For example, a user sets a filter on a column in the grid, and the results change from 1,000 records to, say, 500 records - I'd like to access just these 500 records.

Thanks.

Hi John,


You can iterate through the filtered items using the following code.

C#:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Access the items shown in grid
        foreach( GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
           // Response.Write(item["ColumnUniqueNameHere"].Text);
        }
    }

-Shinu.

First, thanks for the reply.

Second, I should have been more specific.  I'm using pagination with this grid, so the Items collection on the MasterTableView only contains the first page of results (10, in this case.)  Is the Items collection a magic Telerik collection that will lazy-load the rest of the objects if I iterate it?  Or will I need to use a different method?

Thanks.

Hello john,

When you have paging for the grid all the items RadGrid has are the items on the current page. So you cannot access the items that are not present through the displayed ones.
