code not displaying as predicted

[Michael]

Firstly with the datepicker just in edit template I wasnt seeing it at all, secondly the formatting of date MMM/yyy isnt showing?

   <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

        <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Lot Number" DataMemberBinding="{Binding LotNumber}" />

        <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Expiry Date" DataMemberBinding="{Binding ExpiryDate}" DataFormatString="{} {0: MMM/yyyy}">

            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

                <DataTemplate>

                    <telerik:RadDatePicker x:Name="datePicker" DateTimeWatermarkContent="Select a date" SelectedValue="{Binding ExpiryDate, Mode=OneWay}"  DateSelectionMode="Month"/>

                </DataTemplate>

            </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>

                <DataTemplate>

                    <telerik:RadDatePicker x:Name="datePickerEdit" DateTimeWatermarkContent="Select a date" SelectedValue="{Binding ExpiryDate, Mode=TwoWay}" DateSelectionMode="Month"  />

                </DataTemplate>

            </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>

        </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

         

    </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

</telerik:RadGridView>

Hello,

As I understand you have define a DatePicker in GridViewColumn's CellTemplate. In this way RadGridView will not enter in edit mode, since the datepicker handles the mouse/keyboard events. You can try to define a CellEditTemplate only:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Expiry Date" DataMemberBinding="{Binding ExpiryDate}" DataFormatString="{} {0: MMM/yyyy}">

            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <telerik:RadDatePicker x:Name="datePickerEdit" DateTimeWatermarkContent="Select a date" SelectedValue="{Binding ExpiryDate, Mode=TwoWay}" DateSelectionMode="Month"  />
                </DataTemplate>
            </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate>
        </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

In this way you will be able to use the "datePickerEdit" control.

I would suggest you to check this article, where you can find more information about CellTemplate and CellEditTemplate.
