Customizing radgrid view filtering

[Shiva]

Hi,

We are using combo box columns in our radgrid. The default filter functionality of the radgrid however shows hidden IDs/values of combo box rather than visible text. I mean suppose if combo box is bind with values (1 - Apple, 2 - Orange, 3 - Grapes), then default filter shows 1,2 and 3 as filter data. We want radgrid to show Apple, Orange and Grapes as default filter data.

Can you please urgently share your comments with us on how can we acheive this. It would be great if you could please share some code snippet as well.

Regards,
Shiva

Hi Shiva,

Regarding your question about filtering on GridViewComboBoxColumn you should read through this blog post:
http://blogs.telerik.com/pavelpavlov/posts/10-01-20/filtering_gridviewcomboboxcolumn_in_radgridview_for_wpf.aspx 

There it is explained very detailed how filtering can be achieved and there is a sample project as well. The project is done for WPF, but the same logic can be successfully implemented in your Silverlight project.

For more information you can look at our help page: http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/gridview-filtering-useful-links.html

All the best,
