RadGrid FilterTemplate SelectedValue

[Frank]

I have a grid on a screen that the user can filter using a RadComboBox in a FilterTemplate and everything works great.  I will persist this information so if the user leaves the screen and then comes back the will start with their last filter. 
The issue I am having is if for some reason a user eliminates the record that the grid was filter on.  If the user goes back to the page the screen errors because
SelectedValue='<%# Container.OwnerTableView.GetColumn("ClientName").CurrentFilterValue %>' is looking for a value that does not exist anymore.  How can I alter the code so that it would clear there previous filter.

Hi Frank,

Please try setting the SelectedValue of RadComboBox not declaratively, but binding it the code behind:

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
   if (e.Item is GridFilteringItem)
   {
     GridFilteringItem filterItem = (GridFilteringItem)e.Item;
     RadComboBox combo = (RadComboBox)filterItem.FindControl("RadComboBoxID");
     combo.SelectedValue = e.Item.OwnerTableView.GetColumn("ColumnUniqueName").CurrentFilterValue;
   }
}

Thanks,
Shinu
