And

Thanks for help.

Hi Christian,
The problem comes from the fact that the Unit object cannot be serialized. This means that once the object has been serialized and then deserialized, the properties such as Top, Left, Width and Height etc. will loose their values.
Please note that this has nothing to do with Telerik components but with the .NET Framework and missing serialization.This is a shortcoming of the .Net Framework but it could be overcomed. For example you could use the JavaScriptSerializer class to serialize the state of the docks and write your own implementation of a custom JavaScriptConverter class. This custom class will take care of serialization/deserialization of Unit objects.
I created a simple example(SaveDockPositionInDB/DefaultVB.aspx ) which illustrates how to save the state for collapsed, docked, floating etc. RadDocks in DB. Please find it attached.

Thanks,
I will investigate this.
Every days I see how ASP.NET Java (and I should even say Java) is poor: funny to see that we are in 3rd millenium.
I am not so young and 40 years ago we were in same position: what happened.
Anyway thanks for your effort.
I will give a follow up ASAP.
