I have a datetime column in which i have dbnull values in several rows.  When I try and filter the column, I get the following:

Specified cast is not valid.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.

It appears that the filter doesn't handle nulls.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Terry Webster

Hi Terry Webster,

We are aware of a similar problem of the Grid control in .Net 3.5. You this is the same, please set Grid's EnableLinqExpressions property to false as a temporary work around. The devs should resolve the problem for the next version of the control.

Please, excuse us for the temporary inconvenience.

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately you are correct -- we were unable to find a suitable solution to this problem. I can assure you the devs will look into this once again and the issue will be addressed in a future version of the control.

Please, excuse us for the caused inconvenience and use the work-around of disabling LINQ expressions of RadGrid in the meantime.

All the best,
