I just downloaded the trial and I'm trying to display heirarchical data. I've gone through the examples but no luck. The best I can do is display the master row with the plus sign but when I click the plus sign I don't see the details.

I'm using a stored procedure to populate my dataset. It returns two tables. Table[0] is the master and Table[1] is the detail.

I've tried the following two examples. Any help would be apprecieated.

 

Example 1.

dataAdapter.Fill(myDataSet);

myDataSet.Tables[0].TableName = "workorder";
myDataSet.Tables[1].TableName = "details";

DataRelation dr = new DataRelation("workorders",
   myDataSet.Tables[0].Columns["WorkOrderId"],
   myDataSet.Tables[1].Columns["WorkOrderId"]);
DataSet.Relations.Add(dr);

radGridView1.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true;
radGridView1.DataSource = myDataSet;
radGridView1.DataMember = "workorder";

Example 2. 

radGridView1.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables[0];

GridViewTemplate template = new GridViewTemplate();
template.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables[1];
radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate.ChildGridViewTemplates.Add(template);

GridViewRelation relation = new GridViewRelation(radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate);
relation.ChildTemplate = template;
relation.RelationName = "workorders";
relation.ParentColumnNames.Add("WorkOrderId");
relation.ChildColumnNames.Add("WorkOrderId");
radGridView1.Relations.Add(relation);

Victor,

Yes, the tutorial is where I got the code from in my examples. For some reason I can't get it to work. I thought it might be something simple that I'm overlooking and that's the reason I posted my examples. is there additional information I can provide to help diagnose the problem? Thanks.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for writing.
I found an easier solution than the help tutorial. Here is what you need to do.
1. Create a RadGridView.
2. Add a DataSet with it's tables (I suggest using the Visual Studio wizard).
3. Fill the tables with a TableAdapter.
4. Set RadGridView's AutoGenerateHierarchy property to true.
5. Set the RadGridView's DataSource property to the dataset.
6. Set the RadGridView's DataMemeber property to the name of one of the tables.
I have attached a sample application showcase the points. It's really short. Everything is done in the Form's OnLoad event.
I hope this is helpful to you. Please write again if you have other questions or issues.
