Filtering when using binding with datatable

[Simon]

Hi,

I'm using dynamic binding with datatable. Everythin works fine except the filtering, the operator dropdown remains empty. I guess that the grid doesn't know what kind of filter to apply because no type is given. But if I know the type of the column, how could I pass this information from the controller to the view.

Regards

Hi Simon,

In order to set column types in your scenario, you should upgrade to the Q3 2011 version of the Telerik Extension for ASP.NET MVC. In this version we have added MemberType setting to GridColumnSettings feature which used in the provided sample.

new GridColumnSettings { Member = "Number", Title="Number", MemberType= typeof(int) }

Hi Rosen,

thanks for that hint, my filters are working now. One little problem remains when sorting: when i sort by column A and then by column B, the sort command for the first column A is beeing removed. The link in the header in Column B is not updated, it should be:

/?Grid-size=25&Grid-orderBy=ColumnA-asc~ColumnB-asc

But it is

/?Grid-size=25&Grid-orderBy=ColumnB-asc

Thanks for help!

Regards
Simon
