How to bind TimePicker to TimeSpan field?

[miksh]

Does TimePicker support binding to TimeSpan? I didn't find any code samples or description in documentation.

Thanks for the sample. It shows the way to display TimeSpan value which I had no problem with too.
Could you change you sample to add "edit" functionality with using <telerik:BoundColumn> or <%# Bind%>?

[miksh]

Any updates? Please let me know if it's not supported so I could change BO properties from TimeStamp to DateTime.

Hello Michael,

Please take a look at the following link concerning the TimeStamp type:
Timestamps vs Datetime data types

A short quote:
"Ahhh. The dreaded TIMESTAMP datatype. Unfortunately you really can't use TIMESTAMP for any type of comparison. Or really for much of anything. To quote from SQL Server Books Online:

The SQL Server timestamp data type has nothing to do with times or dates. SQL Server timestamps are binary numbers that indicate the relative sequence in which data modifications took place in a database. The timestamp data type was originally implemented to support the SQL Server recovery algorithms.

It further states Never use timestamp columns in keys, especially primary keys, because the timestamp value changes every time the row is modified."

There are some helpful suggestions in the above mentioned website. I'd suggest that you read them.

Kind regards,

Sorry for misprint, I certainly meant TimeSPAN as indicated in the thread topic.

No, I am still waiting for the answer.
My question is:

Hello miksh,


Binding a RadDatePicker, RadTimePicker, or RadDateTimePicker control to a data source is easy provided you use the DbSelectedDate property. It works almost like the SelectedDate one, but does not throw an exception when given a null value. You can't use two way data binding (<%# Bind%>) with TimeSpan object.
