I've recently started using DevForce for middle-tier development on my winform applications and am having difficulty binding with the Telerik GridView. I saw in the example the grid binds to arraylists but what about Generic Collections? The grid binds to all properties and I don't see a way to control that. Am I missing something?

Hello Alfred Ortega,
To control this operation, you must set AutoGenerateColumns to false and add manually the needed columns. Here is a snippet for this scenario:
I hope this helps.

| col = new GridViewDataColumn("Property2"); |
| radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate.Columns.Add(col); |
| radGridView1.GridElement.EndUpdate(); |
| radGridView1.DataSource = genericColl; |
I hope this helps.

@Telerik,
Do you plan to add AutoGenerateColumns in the designer or the Property Window?
Honnestly it is not very convenient not to find it at least in the Property Window.
Maybe I'm stupid but I lost 30 minutes trying to find this property (which BTW is displayed in the Property Window in RadControls ASP.NET AJAX)
BR, Laurent

Hi Laurent,
The AutoGenerateColumns property of the GridViewTemplate is not visible at design time. By default, at design time the AutoGenarateColumns is true and can only change in run time. This behavior follows Microsoft DataGridView behavior.
At design time, once the DataSource is set, the RadGridView auto generates the columns. Once this happens, you can clear, change, delete and manually add your own columns with the desired settings and mapping to data.
If you need further information, please contact me.
Sincerely yours,
