[Solved] RadGrid In RadListView

[Danny]

I have a DataTable:

PO      Customer    Order   Product     Qty
Alpha    Apple      30456   Napkins     400
Alpha    Apple      30457   Pizza       200
Alpha    Apple      30458   Schlitz     400
Beta     Google     20001   Pizza       400
Beta     Google     20002   Schlitz     200

And a RadListView

<telerik:RadListView>
       <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:Label ID="lbl_PO" />
                    <asp:Label ID="lbl_Customer" />
                     <telerik:RadGrid>
                             <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Product" />
                             <teleirk:GridBoundColumn DataField="Qty" />
                      </telerik:RadGrid>
         </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:RadListView>

The desired output is this

PO: Alpha

Customer: Apple

______________________

| Order  | Product    |  Qty   |

______________________


| 30456  | Napkins    |  400   |

______________________

| 30457  | Pizza      |  200   |

______________________

| 30458 | Schlitz    |  400   |

______________________

 

 

 

PO: Beta

Customer: Google

______________________

| Order  | Product    |  Qty   |

______________________

| 20001  | Pizza      |  400   |

______________________

| 20002  | Schlitz    |  200   |

______________________

My PO and customer will *always* be consistent across a range of orders.

I want the common PO and customer to behave like 'rows' in the listview, while the grid still shows all the data relevant to the particular PO.   What's the general way to achieve this?

Hi Danny,

In such scenarios we recommend using the RadGrid Grouping functionality. However, if you do not want to use RadGrid Grouping you could use the new RadListView DataGrouping shown in the demo below which implements the same scenario as shown in your description. Note that the functionality is currently available only in the new Beta release.
