Select a Cell programmatically in Hierarchical Grid

[xclirion]

Hi,

we built a hierarchical grid in our application which may contain more than one child views in the same hierarchy level. Below that grid is some kind of raw data displayed. So when a user clicks somewhere in the rawdata we calculate in which view of the grid an in which row/column the the data lies and we want to select this cell by code.

This works so far for the MasterView and the first ChildView. But not for the second or any higher Childview. Is there any sample code how to do this. We have added some kind of a linenumber which gives us a unique row index over all childviews and the line will be found. The main problem is to bring the right childview to the front.

Thanks for your help,
Michael

Hi Michael, 

I'm a little unsure of what you want to do, but I think you want to get to a row / cell and select it, even if it is a child row in a hierarchy grid. Is that right? 

If so, you can select a row in this way

Me.RadGridView1.CurrentRow = Me.RadGridView1.Rows(0).ChildRows(0)

This would select the first row, below the first row. I.e The first child row of the first row in the grid. 
You can also select a cell in that row

Me.RadGridView1.Rows(0).ChildRows(0).Cells(0).IsSelected = True

hope that helps

Hi Richard,

ok, after some testing the problem is not the selection. The problem is to activate the right child view. So if its the second or third childview the correct cell is selected but the childview gets not activated. If I switch manually to the right childview than I see that the correct cell is selected.

Thanks for your help
