[Solved] Rowspan in Radgrid

[Shiza A V]

Is it possible to do  a row span to  a column in radgrid item row(not header row)?

It should look as follows:

__________________________________________________________

|Description                                            |                   target                        |

|__________________________________________________________|

|Description  1                                          |                   2 | 3 |

|                                       |                4 | 5 |

|                                       |                   7 | 9 |

_____________________________________________________________

|Description  1                                          |                5    | 94 |

|                                          |             6       | 8 |

|                                        |               7     | 3 |

I can send you the screen shot of the format I need if needed. I added the table this way , since there is no way to post image in the thread.

Thanks

Hello Shiza,

You can extend cells if its value is the same as a value in the next row cell, by increasing its RowSpan and making the next row cell invisible as shown below:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        for (int rowIndex = RadGrid1.Items.Count - 2; rowIndex >= 0; rowIndex--)
        {
            GridDataItem row = RadGrid1.Items[rowIndex];
            GridDataItem previousRow = RadGrid1.Items[rowIndex + 1];
            if (row["ColumnUniqueName"].Text == previousRow["ColumnUniqueName"].Text)
            {
                row["ColumnUniqueName"].RowSpan = previousRow["ColumnUniqueName"].RowSpan < 2 ? 2 : previousRow["ColumnUniqueName"].RowSpan + 1;
                previousRow["ColumnUniqueName"].Visible = false;
            }
        }
    }

Hope this helps you..
