Hello,

Is it possible for RadGrid and its DetailTables to share a single instance of EntityDataSource?

So, if i have two tables Orders and OrderItems where OrderItems would have FK OrderID to Orders table.  Now with EntityDataSource property setup to "include" OrderItems, I should be able to define a DetailTable with DataMember = '<%# Eval("OrderItems) %>', and yes, sharing the same data source as MasterTableView.  I know this is possible in a ListView but I couldn't get it to work with RadGrid.

Thanks!

Hello Brian,

I am not sure if I understand your scenario correctly, but generally you will need at least two DataSource controls to have hierarchy RadGrid

You can check the following example:
