radgrid footer aggregate translation

[Zÿm]

Hi

 How do i translate footer values such as "Sum", "Avg" in resource file? Is it possible? What are the key names of these items.

So? It is simple question. Does anyone know the answer?

Hello Sunboz,

Unfortunately, RadGrid does not expose any public properties for automatic localization of its control text. The only approach you can take is to manually find the text in the controls collection of the grid and modify it to a localized equivalent. Here is a code snippet showing how to achieve this:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridFooterItem)
        {
            var item = e.Item as GridFooterItem;
            TableCell cell = item["ColumnUniqueName"];
            cell.Text = cell.Text.Replace("Sum", "Localized text");
        }
    }

Kind regards,

Sorry, maybe I was unclear, i as talking about this
http://code.google.com/p/oshareinventario/source/browse/trunk/nw/nwWEB/App_GlobalResources/RadGrid.Main.resx?spec=svn29&r=29

"RadGrid.Main.resx" resource file, i can't find there a aggregate function name values :/. Is it possible to translate them through resource files? CodeBehind translation is not a solution.

Sorry again

Thanks that helped :)

in addition. RadGrid.Main.resx file is missing aggregate function texts, so i uesd FooterAggregateFormatString="<%$ Resources: RadGrid.Main, SumText %>". I hope this will be helpful for someone. Take care.
