Hi,

is there any tutorial or help available for this control? I know it is new, but it's very hard to work with without proper documentation/training material. I've looked on online help, but there is only brief class/members enumeration. Thx for any help.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

It's a new control and to be hones not quite feature-complete. It was a last minute decision to include it in Q2 2008 and that's why we had to leave it undocumented. Of course that would be only until the first service pack where we should have documentation on how to use this controls.

In the meantime don't hesitate to ask whatever questions you have on how to use the control! These will be treated with priority.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Kind regards,

I see. I'll be impatiently awaiting SP1 :)

First question I have - how do I access/confiture dropdown list? Column widths, etc.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

If you mean how to apply settings to the RadGridView that is used as a drop down list in the RadMultiColumnComboBox, you have a MultiColumnComboBoxElement property of type RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement which is exposed on the RadMultiColumnComboBox component as a property. The RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement has a EditorControl property of type RadGridView. Through this property you gain access to all the RadGridView properties and settings which you can fine tune. At present the settings are not serialized in design time (this feature is under development), nor is a PropertyBuilder exposed in design-time too. Your best shot at the moment is to set all required by you properties through the mentioned API in run-time.

Hi,

In regards to the radmulicolumncombobox , the documentation is sparce and I need to know how to load each column from C# codebehind. So far I've tried loading a datatable to the datasource. Doesn't work. Looping through the data rows of the datatable and adding a single new combobox item doesn't seem to do much good either. Do I use the combobox attribute "addrange", and how do I use it?

Hi Trelan,

I have noticed that you have asked a question about RadMultiColumnComboBox in the Telerik ASP.NET forums. In addition, the question in the current thread contains the key word 'codebehind' which is only applicable to an ASP.NET scenario. Could you please confirm that the current question concerns our RadControls for WinForms suite?

Best wishes,
Nikolay

Yes, it's ASP.NET. Is RadMultiColumnComboBox limited to windows forms only? I need to know how to access each RadCombobox column from codebehind.
