How to create a custom column TextBox + Button (Lookup style)

[Dario Concilio]

Hi to all,

I would create a new custom column.

I need a column to show Item No. and user need to write a code of article or click on button to lookup by articles list, click one and write into cell.

How can I do to do this?

Hello Dario,

In order to achieve such customization, I suggest you taking a look at these three articles:

-  Create Custom Column Editor
-  Add a button column
-  Create Custom Editor with RadGridView

If I am understanding your requirement correctly, you can use a TextBox editor in conjunction with a RadComboBox.

Hopefully, this helps.

I'll try to read these document, but you didn't understand.

I would a column that have this content

<Grid>
    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <ColumnDefinition/>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <TextBox Text="{Binding SelectedCode,Mode=TwoWay}"/>
    <telerik:RadButton Content="..." Command="{Binding LookupCommand}" Width="20" Grid.Column="1"/>
</Grid>

Hello Dario,

In case I am not missing anything, you should be able to define the needed content as a UserControl and use it in the custom column definition, as demonstrated in the listed articles.

Feel free to approach me in case you experience any difficulties with this.

All the best,

I read 3 link that you proposed me.

Indeed I try to create Custom Column with a specific CustomEditor called LookupEditor, in this way I can use this custom column for different context.

Thank you for support.
