[Solved] Databinding expressions in GridBoundColumns

[Thomas]

Hi,

i want to set the HeaderText in a GridBoundColumn by a Databinding expression.

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Text" HeaderText='<%# MyAssembly.MyHeaderText %>' >

I got the following Exception:

Databinding expressions are only supported on objects that have a DataBinding event. Telerik.Web.UI.GridBoundColumn does not have a DataBinding event.

Can you help me? what is the best Practices to solve this Problem?

Best Regards
Thomas

Hi Princy,

thank you for your Reply! I have found this forum link too, but it doesn't solve the Problem. Sure, i can in access the Column in my Code:

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumnSafe("GridBoundColumnName").HeaderText = MyAssembly.MyHeaderText;

...but i think, this is NOT the Best Practise, to do it this way.

Best Regards
Thomas
