'Drawing' hierarchy grid in usercontrol

[Borja]

Hello,
I am working with a usercontrol to add/edit items in a RadGrid row

                <EditFormSettings UserControlName="EmployeeDetails.ascx" EditFormType="WebUserControl">
                    <EditColumn UniqueName="EditCommandColumn1">
                    </EditColumn>
                </EditFormSettings>

But each item/row can have associated another table in which I would like to be able to insert/edit so what i should see at the usercontrol is like another radgrid control. I have read in the live examples that this can be done with hierarchy and DetailTable, but I don´t know how to 'draw' this table in the usercontrol so the items are binded to the employee detail showed in the usercontrol.

This is my UserControl

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="EmployeeDetails.ascx.cs" Inherits="telerik_webGrid.EmployeeDetails" %>
<table id="Table2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="1" width="100%" border="1" rules="none"
    style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse">
        <tr class="EditFormHeader">
        <td colspan="2"><b>Employee Details</b></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td colspan="2"><b>Personal Info:</b></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <table id="Table3" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" width="100%" border="0">
                <tr>
                    <td></td>
                    <td></td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Country:</td>
                    <td>

Hello Borja,

Could you please elaborate a bit on your scenario? For instance where would you like the hierarchy to be, in the page where current you have one-level grid or in the user control used as edit form?

Any additional information would be of help.

In general terms i would like to have a radgrid with rows, each row can be added or edited through PopUp editmode property and usercontrol, also, each row has another related table.

The master row is a client and the related table displays the orders placed by this client.

On the modal popup, I would like to show client data (name, surname, adresses...) and a grid where we can find his orders and where we can add, edit or delete these orders.

Is this possible with the <Detailstable> of a RadGrid?

Hello Borja,

the GridTableViews defined in the DetailTables collection are displayed under the respective parent items but in the edit form. You need to add another RadGrid in the main RadGrid edit form template.
 
Give it a try and let me know if you need further assistance.

Then, is it possible to add a new radgrid control inside a usercontrol that we use as the main RadGrid edit form template? I thought that this wasn´t possible so I tried to do this through detailtable. I will give it a try .

Thank you very much.
