how to export gridview and row details together

[Joe]

Is there a way to export Gridview with its rowdetails together using Export() function?
I have a gridview, which has another gridview as its rowdetails, I want to export the selected gridview and its rowdetails together to make a full row, how should I do this?

Hello Joe,

You could export the rowdetails GridView in the ElementExported event of the RadGridView.
Please check this online demo for a further reference.

Thanks Didie,

I tried that but it does not go to the class. And I do not understand how that code get the rowdetails, what is this code CommandParameter="{Binding Content.Children[0]}" for ?

I actually want both of the GridView data and the rowdetails data, the demo is only for rowdetails even though I cannot make this work either.

Can you help me to understand this code?

this is my gridview, I deleted the Command="{Binding ExportCommand, Source={StaticResource context}}"
                               CommandParameter="{Binding Content.Children[0]}" from that radbutton.

Can you tell me what that Content.Children[0] is for ? or what para I have to pass in? that field is always null in my app.

[Dimitrina]

Hello Joe,

The Content.Children[0] is the RadGridView and it is passed as an object to be exported. You do not need to use a command and pass a command parameter if you do not want.

Please take a look at this forum post, where you could download a sample project about exporting RowDetails/Hierarchy.

Let me know if you have any further questions on that project.
