Export Grid / Hierarchy with Templates

[Gary]

Hi all,

I was wondering is it possible to export the RadGrid to Excel like the one in this demo (http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/hierarchy/nestedviewtemplate/defaultvb.aspx). (See 1.png and 2.png attachments)

At the moment, my page replicates the demo pretty closely. Unlike the demo, the three RadTabs all contains a RadGrid with relations to the main RadGrid. I want to be able to export each of these RadGrids independently. Each RadPageView will contain a button and a RadGrid. The button will export the RadGrid in that RadPageView only.

My problem right now is I cannot address the button or RadGrid inside the NestedViewTemplate from code behind. Could this be done?

Thanks,
Gary

Hello Gary,

Please try the following approach:

<telerik:RadPageView runat="server" ID="PageView1">
     <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Export" ...
     <telerik:RadGrid runat="server" ...

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadGrid radGrid = (sender as Button).Parent.FindControl("RadGrid1") as RadGrid;
    radGrid.MasterTableView.ExportToExcel();

Let me know whether this code is suitable for your scenario.

Best regards,
