[Solved] Initiate Filtering on Command Button Click

[kencox]

Hello,

I have a Filter button inside the <CommandItemTemplate>.

 

 <asp:Button ID="btnFilterCommand" CommandName="Filter" Style="font-size: xx-small"

 runat="server" Text="Filter" />

  

I have preset the filtering like this:

 

<telerik:GridBoundColumn MaxLength="40" DataField="Description" HeaderText="Description"

 CurrentFilterFunction="StartsWith" AutoPostBackOnFilter="false" FilterControlWidth="200px"

 SortExpression="Description" UniqueName="Description">

 </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

  

I want the user to be able to enter the filter text and filter type for each column and initiate filtering only on the Filter button click (not when selecting a filter type).

Could someone point me to an example of this or give me some guidance?

Thanks,

Ken
