                                     </telerik:RadGrid>

My CS code is

 protected void RadCustomer_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        RadGrid selGrid = (RadGrid)source;
        if (e.Item is GridCommandItem)
        {
            //ExportPDF button clicks
            if (e.CommandName == "lnkCustExport")
            {
                //Setting the PDF flag to true
                isPdfExport = true;
                ConfigureSelectFormsPDFExport(selGrid);
                selGrid.MasterTableView.ExportToPdf();
                e.Item.OwnerTableView.Rebind();
            }
        }

So guide me to solve the issue
