accessing group by value in RadGrid footer

[NVB]

I am using Radgrid  and  have the following situation.
First GroupBy is  Product and with in product it is grouped by City 

PRODUCT Part A Part B
Produc AA
City:  New York
 Conractor 1 10 20
Cotnractor 2 12 8
Cotnractor 3 22 20
City Total 44 48

City:Chicago
Cotnractor3 22 12
contractor8 11 33
Contactor 10 24 10
City Total 57 55
Prodcut Total 101 103

Eveything works fin about the total and also I am inserting the labels accordingly in the group footer.

I need to make my group footer more readble i.e it should say  NewYork City Total and Chicago City Total  in the inner group
and  it should say Product AA Total for outr group  rather that standard label

How do I access the groupby value from its Groupfooter.

Thanks for you help

Hi,

Try the following code snippet to access the GridGroupFooterItem.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
 if (e.Item is GridGroupFooterItem)
 {
   GridGroupFooterItem item = (GridGroupFooterItem)e.Item;
   string text=item["UniqueName"].Text;
 }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.

Thanks for the reply

I am getting space(&nbsp) when I read the column  and not the column values

FYI : I am grouping first on Product and next grouping would be city and those are displayed only in group header  and column  are not displayed. Should I be doing something else in 'Product' and 'City' Column to be avaialbe in group footer

I am using VB.net( though it is fine if you can provide c#)

Thanks
