GridViewComboBoxColumn is blank after lost focus

[Matthew]

Dear Telerik,

I am having the same problem as in this post: http://www.telerik.com/forums/gridviewcomboboxcolumn-lost-value-when-lost-focus

however, I believe that I have set all values required:

 <telerik:RadGridView Name="PFGrid" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Height="228" ScrollMode="RealTime" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
                                     NewRowPosition="Top"
                                     AlternationCount="2"
                                     AutoExpandGroups="False" 
                                     CanUserDeleteRows="True" 
                                     CanUserInsertRows="True"
                                     ShowColumnFooters="False"
                                     ShowColumnHeaders="True"
                                     ShowColumnSortIndexes="False"
                                     ShowGroupFooters="False"
                                     ShowGroupPanel="False"
                                     RowEditEnded="PFGrid_RowEditEnded"
                                     EditTriggers="Default" 
                                     Loaded="PFGrid_Loaded"
                                     >
                    <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                        <telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn Header="Quote Section" UniqueName="MaterialType" Width="100" IsFilterable="False" 
                                                        IsGroupable="False" IsReorderable="False" IsSortable="False" 
                                                        DataMemberBinding="{Binding MATERIALTYPE_UID}"
                                                        DisplayMemberPath="MATERIALTYPE_NAME"
                                                        SelectedValueMemberPath="MATERIALTYPE_UID"
                                                        ShowDistinctFilters="False" TextWrapping="Wrap">
                        </telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn>

 

materialtypes is an array of my business object and is set on UserControl Loaded using my API calls:

materialtypes = MainWindow.dataclient.GetMATERIAL_TYPE(new MATERIAL_TYPE(), " ORDER BY MATERIALTYPE_NAME ASC ");

PFGrid.ItemsSource is also set on UserControl loaded:
formulas = MainWindow.dataclient.GetPOST_FORMULA(f, " ORDER BY POST_FORMULA_MATERIAL_TYPEDetail.MATERIALTYPE_NAME ASC ");
PFGrid.ItemsSource = formulas;

GridViewComboBoxColumn ItemsSource property is set on Grid Loaded event:
((GridViewComboBoxColumn)this.PFGrid.Columns[0]).ItemsSource = materialtypes;

 

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks.

My apologies,

I have found my error as described in this post: http://www.telerik.com/forums/gridviewcomboboxcolumn-not-displaying-selected-value

my error was binding the combobox to a property of the business object instead of binding the combobox to a property of the Grid's itemssource.

Thanks.
