Hello, 

I have a large dataset and I was wondering if is possible to enable search on a grid using fields not included in the grid?

Thanks!

Hello Bas,

You can implement the functionality by sending additional parameters to the Read ActionMethod. You can do this using the following approach.

You can specify the Data() method to the Action as described in the article below. In the JavaScript handler you can read the criteria entered by the user and pass it to the server. In order to trigger the logic you can call the read() method for the Grid DataSource manually (e.g. when the user clicks a button).
