Sure, it's an AJAX bound grid.

Grid (in View):
@(Html.Telerik().Grid<ViewModel>()
                            .Name("gStatus")
                            .DataKeys(keys =>
                            {
                                keys.Add(fs => fs.ID);
                                keys.Add(fs => fs.Name).RouteKey("Name");
                            })
                            .ToolBar(commands => commands.Insert().ButtonType(GridButtonType.ImageAndText).ImageHtmlAttributes(new
                            {
                                style =
                                  "margin-left:0"
                            }))
                            .DataBinding(dataBinding =>
                            {
                                dataBinding.Ajax()
                                    .Select("Edit", "Personnel")
                                    .Insert("Insert", "Personnel")
                                    .Update("Save", "Personnel")
                                    .Delete("Delete", "Personnel");
                            })
                            .Columns(columns =>
                            {
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.EmployeeID).Hidden(true);
                                columns.Command(commands =>
                                {
                                    commands.Edit().ButtonType(GridButtonType.Image);
                                    commands.Delete().ButtonType(GridButtonType.Image);
                                }).Width(100);
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.Status).Title("Status");
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.StatusID).Hidden(true);
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.BeginDate).Width(100).Title("Start Date").Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}");
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.FinalDate).Width(100).Title("End Date").Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}");
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.LocationID).Hidden(true);
                                columns.Bound(fs => fs.Location).Width(200).Title("Status Location")
                                    .EditorTemplateName("Locations").Width(190);
                            })
                            .Pageable(paging =>
                                paging.PageSize(25))
                            .ClientEvents(events => events
                                .OnEdit("onEdit"))
)

Controller:
[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
        [GridAction]
        public ActionResult Insert(Status fs, string id, string Name)
        {
            // Bind the model with validation
            if (TryUpdateModel(fs, properties))
            {
                //The model is valid
                px.Update(fs);
            }

            // Return an AJAX view of this
            return View(new GridModel(px.GetStatus(Name)));
        }

So in the above Insert method, the string 'Name' is empty, and the keys.Add(fs => fs.Name).RouteKey("Name");          is going into the string 'id'. keys.Add(fs => fs.ID); cannot be found.

As a result, it's not only confusing but it's giving a ModelState error, the reason is because the string 'Name' is getting translated into the int 'ID' field.

Again, this works fine on all 3 other events (Update, Select and Delete). No model errors, RouteKey properly coming across; I can acesss the unsigned key as 'id' and my signed key as 'Name'.

My database logic is in the 'px' Model but there's no reason to display that now as the result of this error prevents the Insert event from passing Model validation and dropping into the 'px' Model.

I am using Editor templates for dropdowns when in Edit mode, there is a javascript function tied to the onEdit client event to bind the dropdowns to properly selectedValues.

Please let me know if you need any more info on this.

One thing to note, it was working perfectly when the datakeys were both Int types. I only received the bug when switching the 2nd datakey to a string type.
