Hello,

I'm trying to take advantage if the new AutogenerateHierarchy feature of the RadGrid.  Once I assign the data source, I'd like to programmatically apply certain formatting like sorting, grouping, etc to the Master and DetailTables.  So my question is - how do I access the DetailTables if all I have is the tables' names?  I really wish I could do something like myGrid.Tables[tableName].SortExpressions.  What's the best elegant way I can set these properties?

Thank you for your help!

Hello Adam,

You can set the Name property of the DetailTable and then in the ItemDataBound/ItemCreated event of the grid check for the name of the ownertableview and then traverse through the detail table items:
Distinguish grid rows in hierarchy on ItemCreated/ItemDataBound

All the best,
