RadGrid with nested rows

[Duc]

Hi,

I have an XML like this:

<Notes>
   <Note id="111" author="John Doe">
      <SubNote text="Sub note text 1"/>
   </Note>
   <Note id="222" author="Mary Jane">
      <SubNote text="Sub note text 2"/>
   </Note>
</Notes>

Basically I want to use a RadGrid to display:

1. The author in the first row with an expand/collapse icon next to it
2. The subnote directly underneath the note (ie. a separate row)
3. When the expand icon is clicked I want to display the actual contents of the note (server side call).

Is this possible? I toyed with NestedTemplates, DetailTables and even trying to dynamically create rows but didn't get very far.

Here is a screenshot of what I'm trying to achieve:

Thanks for your help

Try the self-ref RadGrid hierarchy, Duc, that might help - here is the demo:

Other thing is to use RadTreeView with templates and implement some kind of node editing for it when clicking a button in its template node.
