I have wired up an ItemDataBound handler for my radgrid.  Pretty simple standard fare (see code snippet below).  However, I've noticed while stepping through the debugger on this that when the column value that I'm retrieving is an empty string, I'm actually getting back " "... so my code never thinks it's an empty string...  I realize I could code something that looks for " " but that seems fragile.  

So I was wondering how I would access not the value from the radgrid column (which appears to be applying some formatting or whatever), but the actual, true blue underlying value from the data source. 

Any references on how to do so would be greatly appreciated.
 

protected void gvMain_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

   {

       if (e.Item is GridDataItem)

       {

           GridDataItem gridRow = (GridDataItem)e.Item;

           bool hasEamil = (gridRow["Email"].Text.Length > 0);

       }

   }

I have a couple fields that are notes fields that i do not put into my radgrid, but when I export I need to go and get them asn export them as well.  Is there a way to export the radgrids needdatasource?

When there are multiple column headers with the same name, the radgrid keeps adding a number to the end of the header. For example if I have repeating column headers that are aa, bb, cc, aa, bb, cc, aa, bb, cc the radgrid displayes them as aa, bb, cc, aa1, bb1, cc1, aa2, bb2, cc2 and so on. Is there a way to turn this off.
This is my code:
  <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource3" Skin="Simple"
                CellSpacing="0" GridLines="None" Font-Size="8pt" CellPadding="0"  Wrap="False">
                <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource3" CommandItemDisplay="Top" Font-Size="8" CellPadding="0" Wrap="False">
                    <ItemStyle Wrap="False" />
                    <CommandItemTemplate>
                        <%=gridHeader%>
                    </CommandItemTemplate>
                    <CommandItemSettings ShowExportToWordButton="true" ShowExportToExcelButton="true"
                        ShowExportToCsvButton="true" />
                    <RowIndicatorColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter RowIndicator column">
                        <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                    </RowIndicatorColumn>
                    <ExpandCollapseColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter ExpandColumn column">
                        <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                    </ExpandCollapseColumn>
                    <EditFormSettings>
                        <EditColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter EditCommandColumn column">
                        </EditColumn>
                    </EditFormSettings>
                </MasterTableView>
                <HeaderStyle Font-Size="8pt" Font-Underline="False" Wrap="False" />
                <FilterMenu EnableImageSprites="False">
                </FilterMenu>
                <HeaderContextMenu CssClass="GridContextMenu GridContextMenu_Default">
                </HeaderContextMenu>
            </telerik:RadGrid>



 Thanks in advance.

I have the timeline view configured to show a multi-column table in the resource area.  I have the header and the content lining up, but I would like to have a horizontal scroll bar show up.  You provide horizontal scrolling in the appointment area and it includes the content and the header.  I assume you have an event associated with the horizontal scrollbar to move the header along with the content.

Do you have any plans to provide more flexibility in the appearance of the resource area?

Is there a way to disable a sliding panel's tab from the server side? The "enabled" attribute on the RadSlidingPane does not seem to do the trick.

Hi,
I have a grid with a GridTemplateColumn checkbox. And a button.
When my button fires I loop all MasterTableView Items and find out which ones are checked.

For every checked row I do perform a delete (server side).
Before it I would like to open a radwindow to do some other stuff

it look like this

     For Each item As GridDataItem In RadGridNM.MasterTableView.Items
                Dim myChk As CheckBox = CType(item.FindControl("CheckBoxSet"), CheckBox)
                If myChk.Checked Then                            
                    RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add(String.Format("OpenNews(" & valQuestion & ");"))

            '----------------------------
            'here perform delete    
           
                End If

   Next


My goal is to wait until radwindow is closed to perform the delete operation, clearly it does not happen and the loop goes on.
I know that the problem is they works in two different level client-side and server-side.
How do i achieve my goal? someone can help me?
Thank you.
