Dear All,
Is there a simple way of filtering the GridBoundColumn over a diferent field than the one defined in the DataField property. I am passing quite complex HTML to the DataField which in the end is being rendered to the user as a simple text with some extra functionality. I would like to be able to filter against this text value instead agains the complex HTML. I imagine the GetFilterDataField() of the GridBoundColumn does just that? I was trying to override the GridBoundColumn but then I receive the "Cannot create column with the specified type name" error.
Regards,
Adam

Hi Adam,
In order to achieve your goal I suggest you implement custom filtering. Please find more information in the following articles:
