Hi,

I am trying to "Ajaxify' my Radgrid. This page works without the RadAjaxPanel but not with?

                End Sub         
                     
                ''' <remarks></remarks>

Hello Dingen,

Generally speaking, the exporting feature of the control work with regular postbacks only. The reason is the grid prepares additional information when performing export operation (available on postback).

To bypass this limitation you can wire the OnRequestStart event of the ajax panel, determine whether the target control is ajaxified and explicitly disable its ajax mode to export with regular postback.

Please read more about grid exporting and ajax in this only help topic:
Export from ajaxified grid
