[Solved] How to make a heading a hyperlink

[Terry]

Hi:

I need to make the headings in a RadGridView hyperlinks.  How can I do that?

Thanks,

Terry

Hello Terry,

 You can define desired column header using Header property of the column. Please check the third column in this demo:

Thanks, Vlad.

BTW, when I click your link to this demo, I get the following error.  I am able to run the demo with my local copy.

It turns out this is not the answer.  What I want to do is make the column header the hyperlink, not the detail rows.  Is that possible?

Just FYI, the text at the bottom of the example refers to Product and ProductLogo columns, obviously copied and pasted from some other demo since they are not relevent in this demo.

Hello Terry,

 
   I've prepared and attached a sample project that you can use as a reference.
Regarding the description of the example - it will be fixed immediately, but the change will be available for our second SP.
 About the error message that you get when open the online demos - you can try cleaning you browser cash and try to load the online demo again.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
