    I have the sharepoint list items as the datasource to the grid and I am using linq for the same. Now that I need to group the grid data based on a field value which is a lookup field value in that list. Every time I do that, it says, Field LookUPList.FieldValue not found in the source table. Please check the expression syntax.

    Can you please guide me through this? Thank you.

    Hello,

     You can only group by fields that are in the original datasource of the grid. In order to perform the grouping correctly you should pass to the groups settings a field from the grid's datasource that corresponds to the one shown in the lookup field.

    Thanks for the reply. I did a workaround to depict a grouping view in my grid.
