Grid is not paging when there are groupings

[Márcio]

Hi.

I have a grid that is loaded on demand, and when I create a group and add it to the mastertableview, the Grid does not page (I click on the page 2, but it doesn't change the page and the records remain the the same of the page 1).

What am I doind wong? Any idea?

Hello,

I suppose that you are binding the grid using simple binding with DataBind() calls. If so you can transform your code to take advantage of the advanced binding with NeedDataSource handling. Thus you will be able to utilize features like paging, grouping, filtering, custom edit forms which are supported only with this type of binding or declarative data sources.

Hi, Pavlina.

I'm actually already handling the OnNeedDataSource event for this purpose. And I must create the GridGroupByFields programmatically.

Here's what I'm doing:

RadGrid RadGridProcessos = (RadGrid)PlaceHolderForGrid.FindControl("RadGridProcessos");
RadGridProcessos.MasterTableView.GroupByExpressions.Clear();

GridGroupByExpression expression = new GridGroupByExpression();
GridGroupByField gridGroupByField = new GridGroupByField();
gridGroupByField = new GridGroupByField();
gridGroupByField.FieldName = "NM_AREA";
gridGroupByField.FieldAlias = "NM_AREA";
gridGroupByField.HeaderText = "Área";
gridGroupByField.SortOrder = GridSortOrder.Ascending;
gridGroupByField.HeaderValueSeparator = " para o grupo atual: ";
gridGroupByField.FormatString = "<strong>{0}</strong>";
expression.SelectFields.Add(gridGroupByField);

expression.GroupByFields.Add(gridGroupByField);
RadGridProcessos.MasterTableView.GroupByExpressions.Add(expression);

As fas as I know, this is correct, but when I page the Grid, it does not goes to the selected page.
If I remove this grouping settings, it pages properly.

Hi,

The provided code looks correct and I can not say what exactly is causing this erroneous behaviour. Therefore, it will be best if you can open a formal support ticket and send us a sample runnable project which we can test locally.
