[Solved] Cant add using Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Grid namespace

[Vanya]

Hi
I am trying to use the RadDataGrid in my project. For starting off I have just copied the code given the "Telerik Controls Example" app. But when I try adding the namespace "using Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Grid" I get an error
"The name "RadDataGrid" does not exist in the namespace "using:Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Grid".

I have been able to use the RadCustomHubTile easily till now but RadDataGrid is giving me problems. RadDataGrid does not appear in the toolbox also.

I have added Rad Controls for Windows 8 in the reference section.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx :)

Hello Vanya,

Thank you for your interest.

Can you please verify that you have added a reference to the latest version of RadControls for Windows 8 SDK or to the binaries as RadDataGrid was not available prior to Q1 2013? I would also suggest you to check the Getting Started article for RadDataGrid in our online documentation.

Let me know if this helps.

 

All the best,

Thanks! yes that was the problem. Its working now. I had added referenes to the older version, hence it was not working.
