    It is possible to set the selection in a grid with paging and to show the page with the selection when the grid is initialized.

    Hello Gil,

    You can use the select method to achieve this requirement:
    http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/grid#methods-select

    In addition, I am also sending a sample application to demonstrate a paging-preserving logic for the selected items:
    http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/controls/data-management/grid/how-to/Selection/grid-selection-checkbox

    Please add the Kendo MVC dll assemblies to the bin folder and run the attached application to see whether it will help you.

    Hi Eyup,

    thanks for your advice. Unfortunately, I still don't know how to do it. 

    I have for instance an item that is on page 10. When the control is initialized,

    it should show page 10 and select the item. I wonder, how this can be done,

    when the selection seems to be restricted to the items that are currently loaded.

     

    Regards

    Gil

    Hi Gil,

    The grid is not able to tell on which page is the record is located automatically by its unique record ID. You will need to determine this manually from your database queries and set the default page accordingly:

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13976496/how-to-change-kendo-ui-grid-page-index-programmatically

    Once the record is among the loaded 10 items, you can now find it and use the select method:
