Getting a column value without using UniqueName

[vincent]

I have an array of several rows and columns bound to a radGrid but I am only displaying a few of the columns which is working fine so far.

For each row, I am displaying a button where I will append it with a querystring of some values.

Unfortunately, some of the values which I intend to include in the querystring are not among the display columns, eg: columnG

I tried declaring a new column in the aspx file with UnqueName ColumnG but it does not seem to be working.

Question is , how do I get this column value in itemDataBound without using UniqueName ?

Thanks

Hello Vincent,

You can access the hidden columns through DataRowView. Here is the sample code.
C#:

protected void grid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
 {
     if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
     {
        string s = ((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["ColumnG"].ToString();
     }
 }

Thanks,
Shinu.
