I have created a custom filter with two datafields

on my aspx page i have
 

<custom:CustomFilter DataField1 = "Name" DataField2="LastName"  

HeaderText="Name"  

 

CurrentFilterFunction="Contains"  

 

UniqueName="UserName"  

 

AutoPostBackOnFilter="True">  

 

<ItemTemplate>  

 

<asp:Literal ID="Literal1" runat="server" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %>'></asp:Literal>  

 

<asp:Literal ID="Literal2" runat="server" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "LastName") %>'></asp:Literal>  

 

</ItemTemplate>  

 

</custom:CustomFilter>

The issue comes when i try to use filterexpression

 

 

RadGrid1.DataSource = Data.GetAll();

 

 

 

string test = "(([LastName] LIKE \'%" + txtFilterBox.Text + "%\') OR ([Name] LIKE \'%" + txtFilterBox.Text + "%\'))";

 

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.FilterExpression = test;

RadGrid1.Rebind();

its probally wrong the way i use the filterexpression but how I should use it with 2 parameters, cant find a simmilar example :)

Hello Mircea,

What exactly the issue is? You do not get correct results or you get an exception? One thing to make sure is that you have EnableLinqExpressions="false" set in your RadGrid declaration. Alternatively, you could modify the filter expression syntax (by default Dynamic LINQ should be used). More information on the possible ways to customize your grid filterin is available here:
