I have a batch editable RadGrid with a column that contains comboboxes for selecting the value in the editable cell. When the cell is not in edit mode, the text for the item selected in the combo box is shown (and the ID value stored) and when in edit mode the combo box appear so the user can select a value. What I'd like users to be able to do is click the header for this column and have the column sorted by the displayed text. I am not seeing a way readily to do this. Has anyone run into a similar situation before?

Hello,

Basically the Grid columns can sort only by fields present in RadGrid's own data source. You cannot sort by fields in the lookup data source of the column or any other data that is not part of RadGrid's data source.
