Configure RadGrid data source in code behine

[Perry]

With an ASP.net Gridview I set the select method in the C# code behind page, and use an IQueryable to access the data entity data to populate the Grid.  Is it possible to do this with the RadGridview or do I have to make that connection with the ASP code?  If so can someone provide instructions on how to do that or an example?

Hello Perry,

Yes, the RadGrid provides NeedDataSource event handler for this purpose:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/data-binding/understanding-data-binding/server-side-binding/advanced-data-binding-%28using-needdatasource-event%29

You can also check the following live sample:

Hope this helps.
