Drag and drop with self-referencing heirarchy

[Julian]

Hi All, I'm using the grid and this example

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/hierarchy/selfreferencing/defaultvb.aspx

I'm also allowing drag and drop. Items can be dragged above or below another item, but not on top of. My goal is to drag one item on top of another so that I can set the parent/child relationship. In the example above, I'd want to set EmployeeID=7 to be a child of EmployeeID=3. Can this be done?

Hello Julian,

When you drop a grid item over another grid item you are always dropping it "on top". It doesn't matter if the row drop indicator shows above or below the target item, you know which item you are dropping on. In the server-side RowDrop event handler, you can retrieve the target item from the event arguments object and update your dragged item's parent key value accordingly.
