[Solved] select rows from gridview

[Hector]

Hello, I am looking for a way to selecting multiple rows from a GridView where column = "xxxx"  I would like to select all the rows that belong to a certain Group, and Group is an item in the bound datasource. 
Thanks.

Here is what I came up with.  It works, but there might be a more efficient way.

private void cmbSelectGroup_SelectionChanged(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (cmbSelectGroup.Text == "Select By Groups:")
                return;
            gridMultiSelect_accounts.UnselectAll();
            foreach (DataRecord r in gridMultiSelect_accounts.Records)
            {
                AccountValidValues acct = (AccountValidValues) r.Data;
                if (acct.GroupName == cmbSelectGroup.SelectedItem.ToString())
                {
                    gridMultiSelect_accounts.FindRecord(acct).IsSelected = true;
                }
            }

        }

Hello Hector,

Your approach seems to be fine. I have just one suggestion :

I believe you can replace :
gridMultiSelect_accounts.FindRecord(acct).IsSelected = true;

with r.IsSelected = true

This may increase the performance a little bit.
