Hi,

What I'm hoping to do is to have a table where each row would have an image lined up next to data related to it (there is an entire table of data for each). However, the number of rows of data that go with each image are not always the same, so I can't just use a view definition and row spanning to make it work.

I believe the best option, especially since I want to export this to excel after it's been generated, is to have one gridview nested inside another. For the parent gridview I'd have 2 columns, one for the image and one to hold another gridview with the data that goes with the image.

I've tried going about this, but I cannot get the nested grid to display (I'm using VB.NET).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Matt

Hello Matt Streit,

Thank you for the question. RadGridView does not support rowspan or hosting another grid control in a CellElement.  Unfortunately, there is not an easy way to do that manually either. We are sorry for not being able at this time.
