Setting up Tabbed childgrid

[Marc-Andre]

Hi there, I'm trying to create a hierarchal radgridview. I do all the steps mentionned in the documentation and it works fine when it comes to showing the childgridview. However, I want to use different tabs to show different information but I can't find where to create the tabs ?

Also, now when I try to open the property builder, it makes VS2008 crash all the time. I'm kinda stuck...

thanks!

Hello Marc-Andre,

Currently we wouldn't suggest using the RadGridView property builder for constructing complex hierarchy scenarios. We are aware of some issues related to the property builder, which may mess up your setup. FYI, we are currently working on a new version of the property builder that will be easier to use and will allow complex hierarchy scenarios.

In order to build tabbed child views you should add the corresponding relations to the master table. Here is a sample:

DataSet set = new DataSet();

set.Tables.Add(table);
set.Tables.Add(table2);
set.Tables.Add(table3);

this.radGridView1.DataSource = set;
this.radGridView1.DataMember = "table";

set.Relations.Add(new DataRelation("rel1", table.Columns[0], table2.Columns[1]));
set.Relations.Add(new DataRelation("rel2", table.Columns[0], table3.Columns[1]));

this.radGridView1.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true;

There is an example in our demo application that shows how to build tabbed child views with RadGridView. Please look at "GridView -> Hierarchy -> Tabbed child views" example for more details.
