Hi

     I have done Programmatically Binding to the RadOrgChart with DataTable . But i am not able to see the chart on UI. Below is my Code

            DataTable table = new DataTable();
            table.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(String));
            table.Columns.Add("Title", typeof(String));
            table.Columns.Add("AndOr", typeof(String));
            table.Columns.Add("ParentID", typeof(String));
            table.Columns.Add("Designation", typeof(String));

            table.Rows.Add("1", "John Smith", "", "4", "CEO");
            table.Rows.Add("2", "Joe Robert", "Or", "1", "Manager SLS");
            table.Rows.Add("3", "Jack Kent", "Or", "1", "Manager Mkt");
            table.Rows.Add("4", "Ravi Kumar", "Or", "2", "Engineer");
            table.Rows.Add("5", "Sue Raymond", "And", "2", "Engineer");
            table.Rows.Add("6", "Lisa simpson", "Or", "4", "Junior Engineer");
            table.Rows.Add("7", "Bob Woley", "", "5", "Junior Engineer");
            table.Rows.Add("8", "Ron Jones", "", "3", "CSR");
            table.Rows.Add("9", "Dave Mason", "Or", "3", "CSR");
            table.Rows.Add("10", "John Williams", "", "3", "CSR");

            objRadOrgChart.DataTextField = "Title";
            objRadOrgChart.DataFieldID = "ID";
            objRadOrgChart.DataFieldParentID = "ParentID";
            objRadOrgChart.DataSource = table;
            objRadOrgChart.DataBind();

             This not Shows anything on Page . But when i remove DataFieldParentID , It shows all records with chart . Please help how it wants the data to show the chart on Page

Hi kuntesh,

DataFieldParentID of RadOrgChart is holding the name of the DataColumn of ParentID value. In order to Show any node as parent you need to set the ParentId of that particular node to null and the child nodes ParentId is the Id of the ParentNode. Please do the following modification in your code which works fine at my end.

C#:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

DataTable table = new DataTable();

table.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(String));

table.Columns.Add("Title", typeof(String));

table.Columns.Add("AndOr", typeof(String));

table.Columns.Add("ParentID", typeof(String));

table.Columns.Add("Designation", typeof(String));

table.Rows.Add("1", "John Smith", "", null, "CEO");

table.Rows.Add("2", "Joe Robert", "Or", "1", "Manager SLS");

table.Rows.Add("3", "Jack Kent", "Or", "1", "Manager Mkt");

table.Rows.Add("4", "Ravi Kumar", "Or", "2", "Engineer");

table.Rows.Add("5", "Sue Raymond", "And", "2", "Engineer");

table.Rows.Add("6", "Lisa simpson", "Or", "4", "Junior Engineer");

table.Rows.Add("7", "Bob Woley", "", "5", "Junior Engineer");

table.Rows.Add("8", "Ron Jones", "", "3", "CSR");

table.Rows.Add("9", "Dave Mason", "Or", "3", "CSR");

table.Rows.Add("10", "John Williams", "", "3", "CSR");

RadOrgChart2.DataFieldID = "ID";

RadOrgChart2.DataFieldParentID = "ParentID";

RadOrgChart2.DataTextField = "Title";

RadOrgChart2.DataSource = table;

RadOrgChart2.DataBind();

}

Thanks,
Princy.
