Hello all,
I'm using RadGrid to displays items from a table. One of the column in a row stores the path to a file, how do I get the value of that particular column on double click (on the row) so that I can displays the file's path and display the file (I'll be using DocumentViewer to display the file.)

Thanks,
Kenny.

Hi Vlad,
Is there a way to modify your code so that it will return the value of the column that I want (the file's path) regardless of where I click on that row? Here is what my grid looks like:

<telerik:RadGridView Name="radGridViewMusicSheets" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Office_Black" 
                                     ShowGroupPanel="False" IsFilteringAllowed="True" 
                                     Foreground="Black" Margin="0,35,0,10" AutoGenerateColumns="False" 
                                     RowIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed" ColumnsWidthMode="Fill" IsReadOnly="True"
 
                        <telerik:RadGridView.Columns> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Title" HeaderText="Title" IsFilterable="False" /> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Artist" HeaderText="Artist" Width="Auto" /> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Key" HeaderText="Key" Width="Auto"/> 
 
                            <!-- Hidden Columns For Search Purposes--> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Title2" HeaderText="Title2" IsVisible="False" /> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Artist2" HeaderText="Artist2" IsVisible="False" /> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="ID" HeaderText="ID" IsVisible="False" /> 
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="FilePath" HeaderText="FilePath" IsVisible="False" /> 
                        </telerik:RadGridView.Columns> 
                    </telerik:RadGridView> 


And I only want the value of the last column (FilePath).

Thanks again for your help,
Kenny.

Hello Kenny,

Here is an example:
        void RadGridView1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
        {
            UIElement clicked = e.OriginalSource as UIElement;
            if (clicked != null)
            {
                GridViewRow row = clicked.ParentOfType<GridViewRow>();
                if (row != null)
                {
                    GridViewCell cell = row.ChildrenOfType<GridViewCell>().Where(c=>c.Column.UniqueName == "FilePath").FirstOrDefault();
                    if (cell != null)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show(cell.Content.ToString());
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Hi Vlad,
The code won't return me the value if I set the column's visible to false? But I don't want to display that column, I just want to get the value, is there a way to do that?

Thanks again for your helps,
Kenny.

Hello Kenny,

You can get directly desired property from row.DataContext - you will need to cast it to your type.

Kind regards,
