[Solved] RadGrid Control and Filtering in postback

[maryam sh]

Hi

I am using a RadGrid control on my web page (search page) which allow user to filter columns. inside my RadGrid I have a link which redirects user to another page and user can back to the search page again.
I was wondering is there any way that I can store the RadGrid's filter condition in a place like session and restore all of them when user is back to visit the page.

I used the following code but it just returns the string ,it didn't set the filter column with their search value in RadGrid.

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                if (Session["RadGridFilterConditions"] != null)
                {
                    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.FilterExpression = Session["RadGridFilterConditions"].ToString();
                    RadGrid1.DataBind();
                }
            }
        }
        protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Session["RadGridFilterConditions"] = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.FilterExpression;
        }

Thanks,

Hi Maryam,

I can see that you are calling DataBind() inside the PageLoad event. Try using Rebind() instead.  Also bind the Grid using AdvanceDataBinding techniques.
