Hello
I have a grid that is created dynamically by the data that is passed. I create the grid's columns in code behind and bind the grid on every postback.
That works fine for the beginning. Even filtering works fine. But when I filer more than one columns the first column's filter gets lost.
Is there a way to persist the grid's filter settings or to load my data in a way that the grid's settings do not get lost?
Thanks in advance
Ferdinand

Hello Ferdinand,
Please review this article on how to create RadGrid programmatically. At the bottom you can find how to create grid template columns dynamically.
Please check it out and let me know what is the difference in your scenario.

Hi Pavlina,
as a matter of fact I did not create the whole grid in code-behind although I have dynamically created template columns in the gird. I will give it a try and post my results.

Hi,
I tried out implementing the whole grid in code behind and now filtering works perfectly fine. But only if I do not use the ajax manager. If I ajaxify the control (doesn't matter if I put an UpdatePanel around the PlaceHolder or if I use the AjaxManager from code behind) no postback functionality works.
Is there any known issue with that problem?

Hi,
I also have it everything done on Code Behind but multiple column filtering is still not working. How did you solved it or figured it out?
Thanks,
Manuel

Hi Manuel,
Please, excuse me for the mistake I need your code-behind declaration. In the previous post you said that you done everithing in code behind. Thus we can check if there are any problems there.
Thank you for your cooperation in advance.

Hello, I was consulting the legal department about sending you the code behind but due to company restrictions I cannot do that.
However, I can tell you that I followed the exact same instructions of the grid on page-init demo. The only difference is that I enabled filtering and AutoPostBackOnFilter to True in some of the columns. By further testing I have found that when I don't include the CurrentFilterFunction in the column's declaration, the value of the column's filter is never persisted after postback. However, If I include a CurrentFilterFunction in the column declaration, the value is always persisted; but If I change the filter function in the filter's dropdown it returns to the CurrentFilterFunction declared in the column declaration.
In other words, If I have CurrentFiterFunction set to "EqualTo" and I change it to "GreaterThan" using the filter's control dropdown, it filters by greater than but in the subsequent postback it goes back to "EqualTo" nevertheless I want it to stay on "GreaterThan" when I am filtering other columns. I have checked and re-checked everything and it looks perfect. I have no idea what else I can do.
Thanks,
Manuel

Hello Manuel,
In order to overcome the described issues with the CurrentFilterValue and CurrentFilterFunction, I would suggest you to set the for the desired columns on initial load, i.e. in if(!IsPostBack) statement instead of on each Page_Init.
Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.
Best wishes,
