Hello,
We have a Grid Filter Menu on a GridBoundColumn with a data type of DateTime coming from the DataSet. The Filter Menu tries to use a DateFormat when filtering and we get this error if we don't enter the correct date format.
"Line: 6
Error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime."
We also have some GridBoundColumns that have a data type of boolean. When we use their filter menu both a checkbox and a textbox is displayed. The textbox is useless.
We realize that one fix is to just change the columns to GridDateTime and GridCheckBox but we are hesitating with this fix because it is a big change to our application and we are worried that these other column types will have more overhead than gridboundcolumn and will end up slowing performace. Please advise us.
Thanks.

Hello Rory,
Try to set the EnableLinqExpressions of the grid to false and check whether it resolves the error.
ASPX:

Hi Princy,
Thanks for the advise but unfortunately that doesn't fix the bug. The error isn't related to LINQ it is coming from the the Filter that is trying to convert the filter string into a DateTime field without providing any sort of validation. This is a bug in Telerik's grid filter control because it allows a GridBoundColumn to be bound with a DateTime type that can apply DateTime filters.

Hi,
In the other post I asked for a sample runnable version of the project where this problem can be observed.
However, can you please verify that your DataField is of System.DateTime type. Does filtering works as expected when you use this field with a GridDateTimeColumn instead of GridBoundColumn? Also make sure that the same problem persists with the latest version of UI controls for ASP.NET AJAX.
