I know what you mean Mark. I was trying to programmatically scroll the grid but selectedrecords and datarecord were gone. None of the examples using these two worked.

Hi mark,

The properties that you mention were obsoleted in Q2 2009. With Q3 2009 they were removed. Our online examples are updated and they use the new properties.

There is no DataRecord anymore. You now have a direct access to the actual business object / entity that is selected by using the SelectedItem property. So if your grid is filled with DataRows the code will become something like this:

DataRow selectedItem = this.radGridView_A1.SelectedItem as DataRow;
if (selectedItem != null)
{
    var selected_id = (string)selectedItem[0];
}

Here you can see an online example of selection. It demonstrates how to use the SelectedItem and SelectedItems properties.

Please, let us know if you have any other questions or difficulties.

Kind regards,
Ross
the Telerik team
