How to add data to radgrid column manually

[SHEIKH]

Hi,
I've a radgridview... with 2 columns i.e. question [GridViewDataColumn], answer[GridViewDataColumn having RadComboBox in CellTemplate]. Question column is all set with data from the domain service. Every question can have multiple different answers that is required to be displayed in the form of a dropdown. May be this can be done through Complex entities. but my latest encounter with complex types was too bad. it has their so much limitations, hardly handles simple scenarios. So now I'm looking for a workaround that can let populate data in the answers column in the form of combobox manually from my ViewModel. Or put it in this way, is there a way where I can update the datasource for a column against the a given row from my ViewModel.

is there any way to do it???

thanks in advance.

Hello Sheikh,

Following is the code that tried to populate one column in gridview manually using MVVM. Hope it might help.

<telerik:RadGridView AutoGenerateColumns="False" ItemsSource="{Binding ItemCollection,Mode=TwoWay}"   >
       <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
            <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Facility Name">
                <telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
                     <DataTemplate>
                         <ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding NewCollection, Mode=TwoWay}" >
                             <ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                                 <DataTemplate >
                                      <Grid>
                                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
                                      </Grid>
                                  </DataTemplate>
                              </ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
                          </ComboBox>
                       </DataTemplate>
                 </telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
             </telerik:GridViewColumn>
         </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
 </telerik:RadGridView>

Thanks,
