Datasource set to dataTable no filter row showing

I've got a radgridview control hosted in a winforms application that is bound to a datatable via: "radGridView1.DataSource = dataTable". The property ShowFilteringRow is set to true, but when the data is shown - no filtering row appears.

How can I get the filtering row to show the radgridview is bound to a datasource.

And before it is suggested, yes I could filter the data before the datatable is bound, but there could be literally thousands or records in the table and the user may want to filter the information further once the information is displayed. An example, I pull information from a vendor table for the state of Idaho (1000 records).... once the information is displayed the user wants to filter by Boise (250 records). They may want to filter further based on a value in another column that may take the count down from 250 to 10 records. You get the idea.

Yes they can use the column ordering values, but that doesn't work. The idea later is to export the information to XML based on the filtered selection explained above.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

RowFormatting confusion

I am evaluating the Telerik winform controls, and have special interest in the GridView. In evaluating, I am using the RowFormatting event to change the font of the row on all even rows (to look at performance and usability). I have a very simple datasource with 1000 records. I have to admit that so far I have been impressed with the ease of handling when it comes to the grid and it's properties.

Then I came upon the RowFormatting event. Works awesome!... until I have to scroll. Then it goes haywire and ends up applying the formatting to every row. How do I fix this... or how do I apply my formatting correctly? My code is very simple:

private void _billGrid_RowFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.RowFormattingEventArgs e)

{

if (e.RowElement.RowInfo.Index % 2 == 0)

{

e.RowElement.Font = new Font("Tahoma", 14, FontStyle.Bold);

}

Office 2010 runtime display issue

Hello -

I've searched the forums and found discussions with a similar issue to mine... but the solutions don't seem to work for me. I created a new VS2010 project, added a radribbon form, dragged an office 2010 theme onto the form, set the ribbonbar theme to office 2010, and I get the content as attached to this post in 1.jpg (in the IDE).

At runtime, I get what's attached in 2.jpg.

Any ideas?

(I'm running VS2010 on Vista 64 bit, radcontrols for winforms Q3 2010).

Thanks
Matt

VS2008 Express registration benefits license terms

hi everyone,

I guess this question is more for the telerik.com guys....I once registered for the VisualStudio 2008 Express Edition and on the registration benefits page was a telerik rad ribbon for winforms control. Unfortunately I cannot seem to find the license terms for that control nor can I access the page to download it again. Can anyone provide me with a copy of the license terms for VS2008 Express Edition for that control? Also, does it apply for VisualStudio 2010 Express Edition?

regards,

Denis R.

How to set Date FormatString in GridViewDataColumn Collection Editor

What value do I need to put in the FormatString textbox of the GridViewDataColumn Collection editor to make the output column a short date string?

My data source is a SQL Date type, not DateTime. I've tried "{0:d}", "{0:dd-MM-yy}" but nothing seems to work.

My date still displays as "MM/DD/YY 00:00:00"

Any suggestions?

Hiding tabs (children with no data) in ORM hierarchy

I have a grid linked to sparse object data, and would like to hide any areas that don't have data from the user. In other words, I'm linked to objects that have child collections, and would like to hide the tabs for the rows that don't have any child data. I used the advice here to hide the expander when it's not needed, but all child tabs are still shown even if only one of them has child data. Is there a way to hide tabs that don't have child data?

Only dock control once

How can I ensure that a UserControl that has been docked to an MDIForm doesn't get docked a 2nd time? That is, I need a control to only be visible once. I tried making it a singleton class, but calling the DockControl of the RadDock still added a new visual element, though one was an empty shell.

I tried to find a list of controls or some other addressable way but failed.

Thanks,
