How to get a ordered items list after drag

[James O'Brien]

I'm looking to be able to handle the reorder myself in the server side RowDrop event using a post drag reordered list. I'll loop thru myself and reorder my data. Is that possible?

<telerik:RadGrid
    ID="gridQL"
    runat="server"
    AutoGenerateColumns="false"
    OnItemCommand="RadGrid_ItemCommand"
    Height="300"
    OnItemDataBound="RadGrid_ItemDataBound"
    OnRowDrop="grdPendingOrders_RowDrop">
    <MasterTableView DataKeyNames="HomeQuickLinkID">
        <Columns>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="HomeQuickLinkID" Display="false"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="LinkTitle" HeaderText="Link Title"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="LongShowDate" HeaderText="Show Date"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="LongUpdatedDate" HeaderText="Last Updated"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="UpdatedName" HeaderText="Last Updated By"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
            <telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Move Up" CommandName="UpQL"><ItemStyle Width="50px"></ItemStyle></telerik:GridButtonColumn>
            <telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Move Down" CommandName="DownQL"><ItemStyle Width="70px"></ItemStyle></telerik:GridButtonColumn>
            <telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Edit" CommandName="EditQL"></telerik:GridButtonColumn>
            <telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Delete" CommandName="DeleteQL"></telerik:GridButtonColumn>
        </Columns>
    </MasterTableView>
    <ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true"  AllowRowsDragDrop="True">
        <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True" UseClientSelectColumnOnly="true"/>
    </ClientSettings>
</telerik:RadGrid>

protected void grdPendingOrders_RowDrop(object sender, GridDragDropEventArgs e)
    {
        int o = 0;
        NextGen.core.CMS.HomeQuickLinkManager m = new NextGen.core.CMS.HomeQuickLinkManager();
        foreach (GridDataItem i in e.[ReorderedItemsLists])
        {
            o = o + 1;
            m.EditOrder((int)draggedItem.GetDataKeyValue("HomeQuickLinkID"), o);
        }
        LoadGrid();
    }

Hello James,

There should be no problem reordering the rows manually. You just need to change their order in the datasource and rebind the grid, as demonstrated in our online demo (take a look in the code behind at the case where the OwnerGrid is the first grid itself).
