[Solved] auto change filter function

[Yi-Chien Chen]

I like the demo below and plan to use this concept to my project.
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/programming/filtertemplate/defaultcs.aspx

Can I change the filter function based on the data type automatically?
For instance, when the data in the column is
1. data type: int...it will use slidebar filter
2. data type: datetime... it will use calendar filter
3. and so on...

Can anyone suggest how to do it?

Thanks,
Billy

Hello,

In order to achieve the described functionality you may implement a template which to render different controls depending on column's type and assign this template to the desired columns. I have attached a very basic implementation of this approach to demonstrate how to setup the custom template and get you started with the implementation.
