Add text after the GroupContinuedFormatString

[Jeff Wowk]

Is there a way to add data driven text after all of the GroupContinued and GroupSplit strings.  I assume this would have to done in the ItemDataBound event or the ColumnCreated event?

Example
ParentFolder: 3020-20-02 Computer Hardware Purchases (Showing 24 of 68 items. Group continues on the next page.) <Add text here>

Hello Jeff,

A possible solution is to get the GridHeaderItem and add a text at the end of it. i prepared a small sample and attached it to this thread. Please give it a try and let me know about the result.

Thanks for the reply

The example you provided works fine.  Quick question.  I've been using the ItemDataBound event to makes changes to controls in my radgrid.  It's also where I had code very similar to your solution, but my txt was being placed in between the two strings.  My question is, is the PreRender event a more efficient  place to make these changes?

Hello Jeff,

If you want to add the text at the end of the string you have to use the PreRender event handler, because the text between the brackets is added after the ItemDataBound event handler. On the other hand if you want to add the text before the text between the brackets then you could use ItemDataBound event handler.
