[Solved] Add controls to a group column cell

[Jake]

Is it possible to add controls (e.g. an Image) to a cell in the rgGroupCol column?

To illustrate:

In the following diagram, x is the collapse/expand link, and o is the location that I want to insert an image. The image displayed would be dependent on an item of data from its corresponding row.

-------------------------------------

     | Column1 | Column 2 |

-------------------------------------

x    -- Group 1 Header Row --

-------------------------------------

o    |              |                 |

-------------------------------------

o    |              |                 |

-------------------------------------

x    -- Group 2 Header Row --

-------------------------------------

o    |              |                 |

-------------------------------------

...

Thanks!

Hi Jake,

Give a try with the following code snippet and see whether it works.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;

            //create the image
            Image img = new Image();
            img.ID = "Image1";

            if(item.ItemIndex==0)
                img.ImageUrl = "~/Image/Image1.gif";
            else
                img.ImageUrl = "~/Image/Image2.gif";

            // add the image to GroupSplitterColumn
            item["column"].Controls.Clear();
            item["column"].Controls.Add(img);
        }
   }
