I have a radgrid which is set to "GroupsDefaultExpanded=False" in the MasterTableView. When a user expands one of the groups they can edit a row within that group which opens a radwindow so they can make changes. Once they close the RadWindow and it returns to the original page, all of the groups are back to being collapsed, but the user wants the original group they were working on to remain expanded. I am using vb.net and aspx pages. How can I expand the original group when returning from the RadWindow?

RadWindow Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

function RefreshData(oWnd, eventArgs) {

<%=Page.ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference(btnRefresh, "")%>

}

</script>

<telerik:RadWindow ID="rwEditAttendance" Behaviors="Close" VisibleStatusbar="false" AutoSize="true" EnableViewState="false" runat="server" Modal="true" VisibleOnPageLoad="false" OnClientClose="RefreshData" />

<asp:Button runat="Server" ID="btnRefresh" style="display:none; width:0px; height:0px;" />

Table code:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="rgAttendanceManager" runat="server" AllowFilteringByColumn="False" AllowSorting="True" ShowGroupPanel="False" AutoGenerateColumns="False" BorderColor="Silver">

<MasterTableView

GridLines="None" Width="100%"

NoDetailRecordsText="No data matching criteria specified"

NoMasterRecordsText="No data matching criteria specified"

EnableNoRecordsTemplate="true"

DataKeyNames="EmployeeId,EventDate,TimecardCommentId,TCUniqueId,Modified"

ShowGroupFooter="true"

GroupsDefaultExpanded="false"

Hi Patrick,

Generally, for hierarchical grid structure you can use:

<MasterTableView ... RetainExpandStateOnRebind="true">

For grouping, you can try to change the load mode to Client:

<MasterTableView ... GroupLoadMode="Client">

Alternatively, you can use a session collection variable to save the expanded groups and re-apply them after the window is closed:
