RadGrid difference to GridView in 2.0 and 3.5?

[pmwhelan]

Hi
Is one difference between the RadGrid and GridView (in 2.0) that the RadGrid can enable Ajax to allow for Ajax sorting of columns?
Can this be done with the GridView in either 2.0 or 3.5?
Thanks
Paul

Hi pmwhelan,

RadGrid provides much more functionality then the standard GridView and that's why it is extensively preferred by the customers. The built-in AJAX mode in the "Classic" Grid is one of those features, but the ability to "ajaxify" any control is also provided by the RadAjax controls:

You can also read more about the RadAjax in the docs -- Controls / RadAjax part.
