Hello Jawed,

To make things work you need to configure your Grid to use Ajax binding, since it is loaded from partial view (using the LoadContentFrom method).

When i try with ajax binding then after sorting or editing cancel or any operation on  grid  then data of the  enum field of grid have change .It shows numeric value.
Please see the new test project with ajax binding.

In the previous build 
Any other way to call page without LoadContentFrom that show grid page with in tab there is no any error while any oparation on grid??

Please help

thanks

Hello again Jawed,

This is happening because you are using a display template on your initial load to display the name of the enum, but when the data comes via Ajax (e.g. after sorting) the data is serialized using the value of the enum. I suggest you to use a view model which does not depend on enums.

As for your second question I do not understand what you mean, could you clarify?

Hello Jawed,

I have attached a sample project. Basically it is using View Model to properly display the enum property since it is using string instead. There are also few other changes made to your editor template and no display template is needed.
As for the server binding scenario you need to declare your grid in the same View as the TabStrip using the Content method
e.g.

tabstrip.Add()
.Text("General")
.ImageUrl("../../Content/2011.2.712/Common/Icons/Suites/mvc.png")
.Content(() => {
   Html.Telerik().Grid<ElectrumApplication.Models.MarketSecurity>().Name("sda")
       //...
       .Render();
}
);

Thanks Petur
Solution is good but there is a problem in this solution is that enum editor templates.
I had written the code for generic for all the enum for singe editor templates but in your solution it is not generic.
See
@model System.Object
@(
    Html.Telerik().DropDownList()
        .Name(ViewData.TemplateInfo.GetFullHtmlFieldName(string.Empty))
        .BindTo(new SelectList(Html.EnumSelectList<Object>(Model.GetType()), "Value", "Text"))
)
 This is generic code for all enum type data or you can say for single editor template for all combo.

but in your solution..

@model System.Object
@(
    Html.Telerik().DropDownList()
        .Name(ViewData.TemplateInfo.GetFullHtmlFieldName(string.Empty))
            .BindTo(new SelectList(Html.EnumSelectList<Object>(typeof(ElectrumApplication.Models.SecurityType)), "Value", "Text"))
)

this is not generic ,it support only for "Security type" enum data.

So Please help me how can make it generic that support all enum.


As for the Server binding it good for your hints but  in the my project need 
grid within grid  like Master/Detail grid you can see example
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/razor/grid/hierarchyserverside 

so please help can I implement this type of grid within tabsrip.

Thanks.
