I'm trying to bind a radgridview to a generic list of objects.
Each object in my generic list contains yet another class object.
For instance, I want the columns in my grid view to be like this:
Row1Column1 = GerericList(0).Property1
Row1Column2 = GerericList(0).Property2
..this works for me... but I haven't found a way to do this...
Row1Column3 = GerericList(0).Property3.SubProperty1
Row1Column4 = GerericList(0).Property3.SubProperty2
Make sense?
Is this possible when I bind a grid view to a generic list?

Hello Ryan,
The reported scenario is possible in RadGridView but I would need some details about your specific case. Please open a new support ticket and send us a simple example to reproduce you problem locally.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I have a similar problem. I use a generic list of type List <person>.
Every person has the name and first name (both a strings) and exactly one address type of address. The class address includes, among other things, the zip code as a string. I want to dispely the names of persons and the zip code in the GridView.
It would be helpful if I could use the design mode.
For suggestions, I would be grateful.

Hello Christian,
You can bind the RadGridView to your generic list of type List <Person>. Then set FieldName of Address column to 'Address.Zip' to view sub property.

| radGridView1.Columns["Address"].FieldName = "Address.Zip"; |
This scenario is valid also for designtime, when you add new data source from object, map your custom object and bind to RadGridView. You can expand MasterGridViewTemplate property in PropertyGrid of VS and open Columns editor, then you can change FieldName of Address column to 'Address.Zip'
Please view the DataBinding example in our QSF.
