Hi All,
I need some help with a date filter. I want the filter to show a date field with picker. Acceptable date format: dd/MM/yy. When the user clicks to filter the EqualTo filter will be used. I need the filter to work on a dd/MM/yy 00:00:00 - dd/MM/yy 23:59:59 basis and bring back the full day of matching figures - as it stands it would only bering back dd/MM/yy 00:00:00 which is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.
I've seen several similar posts but can't find anything that seems to make sense. In the future please can the demo section on the site start to include these custom but very useful methods? Searching through the forums is getting to be a very fustrating exercise.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Jon

Hi Jon,
In order to filter date and time I suggest you use RadDateTimePicker inside RadGrid ItemTemplate.
More information about RadDateTimePicker is available here:
RadDateTimePicker server-side Events

Hi Pavlina,
I'd prefer not to have the users have to set the time. Is it possible to intercept the filter and apply it against a hidden column set to dd/MM/yy 00:00:00 - I'll get that column set in the SQL to strip out the time and replace with the 00:00:00.
The reason for this is that having to do the templates on so many different grids will be a pain in the neck.
I'd also like to request that this be a feature added into the next version of the grid - it seems from the forums that many people have the same issue.
Regards,
Jon

Hi Pavlina,
Thanks but that is only of limited help.
The problem that I seem to be having is that when I use a custom filter then couple it with standard filters the standard filters interfere with the datatime filter and vice versa.
Could you provide me with an example of a grid where there is at least 1 column using standard filters and 1 column using a date filter on a column with times within it?
There is a solution to my issue where I separate out the time to a second column but that looks amateur and in all honesty I'd have thought that the Telerik grid would be able to handle this simple and you'd have thought frequently arising scenario.

Jon

Hi Jon,
At this point in order to progress in the resolution of this problem, it will be best if you open a formal support ticket and send me a small working project which would allow me to track the issue locally. Thus I could do all my best to help you in resolving it.

Hi,
The solution that I used was to go for the two column approach. In the stored procedure I cast the date as an NVARCHAR and also I output the proper date column. Then in the datagrid the column that you use is both. You use the NVARCHAR value as the display and filter value but the datetime column for the sort. That way you can filter dates but also sort properly. The downside is that say someone enters the date as 01/10 then they'd get everything for Jan 2010 and 1st October (all years).
Hope that helps.

Jon
