Silverlight 2 "DataTable"

[Richard]

 

Hi

I am trying to create a Silverlight 2 VB run time “DataTable” where I can add columns and rows and bind to a RadGridView. This data must bind bothways allowing me to extract the user input. The data row and columns will totally be defined at runtime, so I cannot use standard object collections, is there anything in the Telerik.Windows.Data I can use to create a runtime data table?

If not do you have any other suggestions that will allow me to achive my goal ?

Regards,

Richard C

Hello Richard,

You can use ClassFactory from Telerik.Windows.Data.Dynamic namespace to create classes with dynamic properties. Check this blog post to see how it is used.

Also check out this code. It simulates something like data table to mimic spreadsheet behavior.

Hope this helps.
