.... I've tried to programmatically hide the 'plus' sign next to top level nodes with no children nodes using this c# ....

    
            public void Page_PreRenderComplete(object sender, EventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        HideExpandColumnRecursive(grdClients.MasterTableView); 
        
                    } 
        
                    public void HideExpandColumnRecursive(GridTableView tableView) 
        
                    { 
        
                        GridItem[] nestedViewItems = tableView.GetItems(GridItemType.NestedView); 
        
                        foreach (GridNestedViewItem nestedViewItem in nestedViewItems) 
        
                        { 
        
                            foreach (GridTableView nestedView in nestedViewItem.NestedTableViews) 
        
                            { 
        
                                if (nestedView.Items.Count == 0) 
        
                                { 
        
                                    TableCell cell = nestedView.ParentItem["ExpandColumn"]; 
        
                                    cell.Controls[0].Visible = false; 
        
                                    nestedViewItem.Visible = false; 
        
                                } 
        
                                if (nestedView.HasDetailTables) 
        
                                    HideExpandColumnRecursive(nestedView); 
        
                                } 
        
                            } 
        
                        } 
        
                    }

Line 14 above ALWAYS indicates that the "nestedView.Items.Count" equals zero. I know for a fact that some of the nodes have more than one item in their nested views. I kn ow this because they show themselves when I comment out line 3 in the C#.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
