I've noticed that the SortedBackColor on my RadGrids does not clear when I toggle the sort to "None" when I have AutoGenerateColumns="False".  Does anyone know of a work around or fix for this?

Hi Doug,

One suggestion would be to set the backcolor for the sorted column in the code behind instead of setting the SortedBackColor property.

CS:
protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e) 
    { 
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem) 
        { 
            if (e.Item.OwnerTableView.SortExpressions.Count > 0) 
            { 
                GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item; 
                item["columnUniqueName"].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red; 
            } 
 
        } 
        
  
    } 


Thanks
Shinu.

I have been experiencing the same issue.   When I tried using the code sample above, I get an error stating that

"Cannot find a cell bound to column name 'columnUniqueName'"

Am I missing something or was the example above incomplete?

Hi Brian,

UniqueName is the column property which you need to set. So that you can access any cell of the Grid in the code behind using this property.

ASPX:
<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="ProductName" UniqueName="ProductName"  HeaderText="ProductName" SortExpression="ProductName" > 
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn> 

CS:
 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e) 
    { 
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem) 
        { 
            if (e.Item.OwnerTableView.SortExpressions.Count > 0) 
            { 
                GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item; 
                item["ProductName"].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red; 
            } 
 
        }  
   } 


Thanks
Shinu.
