Format Detail Records of Hierarchy

[Todd]

I have a grid that I'm binding to a dataset. The dataset has the datarelations defined on it prior to assigning it to the grid (meaning I am not defining any relations on the grid itself). The data is displayed as I want it, with all of the details information being displayed in grids on tabs with each parent row. What I need to be able to do now is format the grids containing the detail information. How can I access those? I normally format my grids simply by using grid.columns.<whatever> and setting the properties right after I bind to my dataset. If possible I'd like to just add my detail formatting in the step as well.

 

Thanks.

Hello Todd,

Thank you for writing.

Since you are defining the relations in your DataSet you should be knowing the schema very well. After binding RadGridView and generating the hierarchy you can access the templates from the Templates collection. Then you can format these templates the same way as if you were working on the master level.

I am sending you an example demonstrating how this can be achieved.

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.
