I'm a newbie to ASP.NET and while I've used RadGrid extensively in WINFORMS, trying to implement a simple GRID on a Sharepoint page is just plain confusing and very frustrating.  I don't want to try and assemble the relevant bits out of 4 or 5 different blogs and then edit files remembering to include the right version and keys etc.    Could someone please do a simple how to on how to add a RadGrid Q1 2009 to a Sharepoint 2007 page from a clean install using Sharepoint Designer or Visual Studio 2008.  I've spent hours sprinkling pixy dust, praying to the web.config gods to please allow my code to work, but nothing but errors.  

Is there really no way to implement RadGrid on Sharepoint without having to resort to hacking the system?  How can this be expected to be implemented and documented in a production environment?  Surely there is a logical and straightforward procedure to add a RAD control to Sharepoint page.  I've given up trying to do a WebPart I'm settling for just a simple grid on a Sharepoint page.  Help!!

P.S.
Why does the web.config file need to be manually edited?  Why is there no instal utility?

Hello Alan,

I am pasting here the response from the support ticket you opened with regards to this subject:

I am sorry to hear that you are having hard time integrating our web grid in your Sharepoint web site. We will do our best to improve the current documentation concerning RadControls integration in MOSS/provide step by step tutorial for the next versions of the products.

I assume that you familiarized yourself with all general topics from the 'Integrating RadControls in MOSS' chapter in the online documentation. Can you please elaborate a bit more about the complete stack trace of the error(s) you receive (setting the customErrors -> Mode attribute to off)  when trying to view the respective page in the browser? This can shed some additional light on the matter and help us determine the nature of the issue to adddress it accordingly.


Best regards,
Sebastian
