[Solved] Localizing a GridDropDownList

[Markus]

Hello!

I have a RadGrid with a GridDropDownListColumn. The datasource for this column is an ObjectDataSource that gets the values out of a class that converts an enum to a list.

Everything works fine so far, but now I need to localize the entries of the GridDropDownList.
I tried to follow this approach: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdcustomizeconfiguregriddropdowncolumn.html , but unfortunately
at this time (after ItemDatabound) the DropDownList has no Items.
Do you guys have any ideas how I can loclize the entries in the dropdownlist?
thx in advance & kind regards

Hi Markus,

You can use the ItemDatabound event handler, and get a reference to the editForm, and the relevant dropdowns. Then, you can alter the datasource for the dropdown, and DataBind it again. Thus, it will contain the new, localized values.
I hope this suggestion helps.

All the best,

As I already said: There are no items in the itemdatabound event, I'll open a support ticket.
