Hi,
I have been struggling with some of the grouping mechanisms. The documentation really isn't that great on this and could do with some more examples.
Take the example of multiple levels of grouping on this page: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/functionality/grouping/grouping/defaultvb.aspx?show-source=true
How do you add a custom GroupHeaderTemplate to this page. If you do it the way that is described in the documentation it crashes. Why? Because in the example there are two levels of grouping. The GroupHeaderTemplate docs only cater for one template while there can be multiple groups.
Pulling my hair out on this one!
Any pointers
Regards
Jon

Hello Jon,
Note that in the GroupHeaderTemplate you are setting all the templates that need to be disaply for each field that is grouped. For instance when you try the sample from the topic initially you have only one group that groups the UnitsInStock field. If you group by another field for instance ProductName it will add this template as well. I test the sample and on my side seems to work correctly. Could you please let me know whether you have received any exception on your end?

Hi Kostadin
Thanks for that. In the end I created a couple of functions to handle the Text and Visible elements. Doing them in the aspx just ended up with exceptions being thrown thanks to the missing data. So the functions simply detect which of the two groups is in use and respond accordingly.
