WCF RIA Load Children

[Richard Harrigan]

Using Northwind database one of the examples shows loading the Customer table using WCF Ria Services..  How can that program be modified to show the customer orders in the same RadGridView.  Also, I only want to retrieve and show the orders for the selected customer. 

Thanks

Hi,

You cannot have both Orders for every Customer and Orders only for selected Customer and all these in the same grid. Can you post more info about your scenario? Do you need master/details with two grids or hierarchical grid?

 This blog post may help you in your case.

Sincerely yours,

Hi,

That example helped a lot.  Staying with that example I wanted to try out binding a column dynamically.  I commented out the Country column in the xaml and tried to add programatically. It failed with a Invalid Binding Path exception.  If I omit the DataMemberBinding the Country column shows up but of course no data.

Thanks
Rich

MainPage()

    InitializeComponent();

    DataContext =

 

new MyDataContext();

 

 

 

    GridViewDataColumn gvdc = new GridViewDataColumn();

 

    gvdc.Header =

 

"Country";

 

    RadGridView1.Columns.Add(gvdc);

    gvdc.DataMemberBinding =

 

new System.Windows.Data.Binding("{Binding Country}");

 

}

Hello,

 The correct binding should be:

new System.Windows.Data.Binding("Country")
