Saving grid settings.

[Sam]

Hi,

I tried to implement the demo located here:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet/grid/grdsavingsettingsonperuserbasis.html 

The demo was written for the old set of controls; I tried to use the code against the latest version of RadGrid and get the following error:

Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.ArrayList' to type 'System.Object[]'.

getting thrown here, when trying to read the settings:

Dim gridSettings() As Object = CType(formatter.Deserialize(reader), Object())

I literally just copy/pasted the demo code into my app and changed the "Telerik.WebControls" reference to "Telerik.Web.UI" instead...

Note, I'm saving and reading the settings to a cookie.
Also tried saving to session (StateServer enabled) and get the same error.

Quick fix?

Hello,

please set class as Serializable.

Error still occurs with class marked serializable.

Hi,

You could check this help topic which content is upgraded to use the Ajax version of RadControls.
