    Hi Kevin,

    The code that you posted is OK and the RadWindow should be displayed after a postback. Could you please post here the rest of your page's code?

    Just a quick follow-up:
    Try adding the RadWindow in the Controls collection of the RadWindowManager as well.
    e.g.

    RadWindow newwindow = new RadWindow();   
    newwindow.ID = "RadWindow10";   
    newwindow.Width = 800;   
    newwindow.Height = 600;   
    newwindow.NavigateUrl = "Repair.aspx?Propref=" + property.PROPREF;   
    newwindow.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;   
    newwindow.Skin = "WebBlue";   
    RadWindowManager1.Windows.Add(newwindow);  
    RadWindowManager1.Controls.Add(newwindow);

    Hi Kevin,

    In such case, please open a support ticket and send me your project so I could check it. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

    As for your last question, yes, this is possible by using the client-side API - check the following help article for more details:

    Hi Georgi

    thank you for your reply it has been very helpful one final question can this be done server side as we are currently calling the new window server side?

    Many thanks

    Hello Kevin,

    If you want to open the second RadWindow on the parent page (as shown in the help article that I posted earlier), you could do that only on the client - the content and parent pages are two separate documents and you cannot access one from another on the server.
