Header

[Dip]

Is there a way where we can "Insert a row before the Header" in the Event ITEMCREATED...


thanks,

Hi Dip,

I dont think it is possible to insert a row above the Grid Header. But you can use a CommandItemTemplate to fit for a row.

ASPX:

 <MasterTableView    CommandItemDisplay="top"  Width="900px" TableLayout="Fixed" EditMode="InPlace" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" >
                   <CommandItemTemplate>
                     <table>
                       <tr>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Label2"></asp:Label>
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="Label3" runat="server" Text="Label3"></asp:Label>
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="Label4" runat="server" Text="Label4"></asp:Label>
                        </td>
                       </tr>
                     </table>
                   </CommandItemTemplate>

Thanks

This doesn;t work for me as I have to come up with code from the server side..I know how to do it in Asp Control, but failing in telerik Control..

protected

void Rad_ItemCreated(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridHeaderItem)

{

RadGrid g = (RadGrid)sender;

GridTableView h = new GridTableView(g);

GridHeaderItem u = new GridHeaderItem(h,0,0);

GridTableHeaderCell cell = new GridTableHeaderCell();

cell.Text =

"CustomText";

cell.ColumnSpan = 3;

cell.BackColor = System.Drawing.

Color.Gold;

u.Cells.Add(cell);

g.Controls.AddAt(0, u);

Label1.Text =

"GOGGO";

}

}

I was able to inset a column above the Header,but can't get Colspan to work it properly...
If any one can I will be really greatfull...

thanks,
DIP

Hello Dip,

As posted initially, you can use the CommandItem template to achieve this functionality.
Other than this, adding the item(s) programatically is not the recommended approach. In what ways does the approach of nesting the item in the CommandItem template, come short?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply,
Well let me explain my problem,
   
        Name                Contact
 First        Last       Email      Phone
***         ***         ***          ***
###         ###         ###          ###

one thing the CommandTemplate Comes short is that when I resize my "Last" column then it comes to fall under Contact.Now CommandItemTemplate stays static with fix length. It would be good if column were not resizable, but well my first requirement to  resizable and second to put Group Header. So that is where CommandItemTemplate fall short. I hope I statement my problem well..

thanks for any help,

Thanks,
DIP

Hi Dip,

Try using GridTemlateColumns to achieve the desired scenario.

ASPX:

 <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TempCol1" >
                       <HeaderTemplate>
                         <TABLE id="Table1" cellSpacing="1"  cellPadding="1" width="300" border="1">
                           <TR>
                            <TD colspan="2" align="center"><b>Name</b></TD>
                           </TR>
                            <TR>
                              <TD width="50%"><b>First</b></TD>
                              <TD width="50%"><b>Last</b></TD>
                           </TR>
                         </TABLE>
                  </HeaderTemplate>
                  <ItemTemplate>
                          <TABLE id="Table2" cellSpacing="1" cellPadding="1" width="300" border="1">
                           <TR>

                            <TD width="50%"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Last")%></TD>
                           </TR>
                       </TABLE>

                         <TABLE id="Table1" cellSpacing="1"  cellPadding="1" width="300" border="1">
                           <TR>
                            <TD colspan="2" align="center"><b>Contact</b></TD>
                           </TR>
                            <TR>
