Hiding a column and still have it accessable in client-side JavaScript

[Dick]

I have a column in a grid that I use to hold a database key for the record displayed in the grid row.  This columns data should not be visible to the user.  I know I can set the visible attribute to "false" and it will not appear in the grid.  However when I do that, it is no longer accessable to my client side java script function, which is involked when the row is clicked.  Is there a way to accomplish this so that it is available to javascript while still not being displayed in the UI Grid. ???

Hi Dick,

Try hiding the Column using the Display property instead of the Visible property.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="ProductName"    Display="false"  HeaderText="ProductName" SortExpression="ProductName"
                        UniqueName="ProductName">
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

Thanks
