I'm having difficulty expanding / selecting a specific detail table within a hierarchy grid. I have:
 Plans [MasterTableView] >
            Goals [DeatilsTableView] >
                     Objectives[DetailsTableView]

I need to select say only Objective 3 by its DataKey [as Im passing ObjectiveId via the querystring to this page]. I seem to be only able to expand all the objectives, when I need to just 'expand to' or 'show selected' whatever ObjectiveId row...  Here's my function...am I even close...or is there an easier way?                                                                                                                  protected void ExpandToObjectives()
    {
        string sObjectiveId = Request.QueryString["ObjectiveId"].ToString();

        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.HierarchyDefaultExpanded = true;

        foreach (GridTableView gtv in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.DetailTables)
        {
            if (gtv.Name == "Goals")
            {
                foreach (GridTableView gtv1 in gtv.DetailTables)
                {
                   
                        if (dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("ObjectiveId").ToString() == sObjectiveId)
                            dataItem.Selected = true;
                  
                }
            }
        }
    }

Made some progress...I did/can find the datakey in the Plans masterTable now but can't seem to get into the details tables and make whatever rows pk make that row selected...? The code below works for plans...


 protected void Page_PreRenderComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
 
            //Plans...it works
            foreach (GridDataItem gdi in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
            {
                if (gdi.GetDataKeyValue("PlanId").ToString() == Request.QueryString["EntityId"].ToString())
                    gdi.Expanded = true;   //gdi.Selected = true;
            }

          
    }

Hello B,

How to traverse grid items in hierarchy (in order to achieve the drilling functionality you are searching for) you can see from the following topic in the online documentation:

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdtraversingdetailtablesitemsingrid.html

Furthermore, if you use HierarchyLoadMode = Client you may consider taking advantage of the ExpandHierarchyToTop() method from the server-side API of the control:

http://demos.telerik.com/ASPNET/Prometheus/Grid/Examples/Hierarchy/HierarchyLoadModeClient/DefaultCS.aspx (see the Page_PreRenderComplete handler)
