Default expand

[Paula]

I have a very, very basic grid with a nestedviewtemplate and would like for it to be defaulted to be expanded.  I thought that was the default already but it isn't.  What am I doing wrong?

<MasterTableView AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="Main_Category_ID"
            DataSourceID="sqlCatagoriesMain">
    <NestedViewTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="lblMainID" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Main_Category_ID") %>'
            Visible="False"></asp:Label>
        <asp:SqlDataSource ID="sqlCategoriesSub" runat="server"
            ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:BiddsConnectionString %>"
            SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Categories_Sub] WHERE ([Main_Category_Link] = @Main_Category_Link) ORDER BY [Sub_Category]">
            <SelectParameters>
                <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="lblMainID" Name="Main_Category_Link"
                    PropertyName="Text" Type="Int32" />
            </SelectParameters>
        </asp:SqlDataSource>
        <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid2" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            DataSourceID="sqlCategoriesSub" GridLines="None">
            <MasterTableView DataSourceID="sqlCategoriesSub">
                <RowIndicatorColumn>
                    <HeaderStyle Width="20px" />
                </RowIndicatorColumn>
                <ExpandCollapseColumn>
                    <HeaderStyle Width="20px" />

Hello Paula,

You can expand the NestedViewTemplate by default, by setting HierarchyDefaultExpanded property of MasterTableView to 'True'.

Thanks,
Princy.
