[Solved] Loop Through GridFilteringItem Collection

[Troy]

(Using Q1 2009)

I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer for --

Currently, if I want to find out the value of a filtered column, say, a TextBox or DatePicker, I am doing something like this:

 

GridFilteringItem item = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.FilteringItem)[0] as GridFilteringItem;

 

 

string Name = (item["Name"].Controls[0] as TextBox).Text;

 

DateTime? FromIHD = (item["Date"].Controls[0] as RadDatePicker).SelectedDate;

But this method requires me to know the "string columnUniqueName" to access the item.

What I would *like* to be able to do is loop through the GridFilteringItems (perhaps by an index?), determine what type of control that column is using (such as a TextBox or RadDatePicker) and get the values of each one.

Maybe I'm just blind, but I didn't see an easy way to do this.

Thanks!

Hello Troy,

One possible option in this case would be to iterate through the Columns collection of the control.
Then, by accessing each column, you can get its unique name. Thus, you can access the filter item's cell, related to the column.
I hope this suggestion helps.
