Good afternoon,  

I wasn't sure if this question belongs in the WaitingBar thread or RadLayoutControl, but here is the problem.

I have a standard C# UserControl, with a RadLayoutControl that is docked to the parent(UserControl).  The layoutcontrol has several items in it and that part works well.  What I would *like* to be able to do is on creation of the user control, have a waiting bar of the spin variety show over the LayoutControl until a few items that need to retrieve data are ready to be shown.  The smart tag will let me assign the WaitingBar.AssociatedControl to the RadLayoutControl, but if I call the waitBar.StartWaiting(), I can't see the bar.

I can seem to successfully have the WaitingBar appear over any of the components within the LayoutControl,  but I would really like it to go over the entire LayoutControl if possible.

I hope that makes sense, and thanks for any help you might have.

Hello

I have a databound gridview in which I change two columns from standard cell to dropdown cells

So far everything is fine, when I select a value in the dropdownlist, the grid is properly updated.

However I need to validate the user's selection from the dropdown list and cancel the change if not authorized based on various conditions.

I have tried various methods, such as using the callvalidating or cellvaluechanged events but I have not managed to cancel the change when not authorized. Moreover in some cases the dropdown is no longer available.

As a workaround I perform the check in the cellvaluechanged event reload completely the grid when the change is not authorized but this is far from being efficient.

Herebelow the code snipet of the celvaluechanged event

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Select Case e.Column.Name
            Case "Ctrldd"
                Dim mEntry As New mEntry(MyConnectionString)
                mEntry.UpdateCtrl(context, theEntry.idEntry, e.Value)
                ShowEntryDetails(theEntry.idEntry)
            Case "HCdd"
                Dim mEntry As New mEntry(MyConnectionString)
                If mEntry.CheckHCChange(theEntry, theCompetition.Label.Scope) Then
                    mEntry.UpdateHC(context, theEntry.idEntry, e.Value)
                    ShowEntryDetails(theEntry.idEntry)
                Else
                    MessageBox.Show(My.Resources.Entry.ChangeHCNotAllowed, My.Resources.Main.WarningMsg, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
                    'request a reload of the grid
                    RaiseEvent RefreshRequired()
                End If
        End Select

Thanks in advance for any advice

Hello

I have added a Clear Button in a Rad TextBoxCOntrol
However it shows up at the left of the text box and my understanding is that it should appear at the far right.

I have not found a property that specifiys the Clear Button Position.

Thanks in advance

Hi, which control can I use to connect to sql server and get a list of database names (without manual implementation)? Currently I have to use manual code to get the database + table name then add to the some controls like treeview and listbox respectively
(I think I should use treeview because maybe I need to list database then whole table in the database but I'm not sure whether it supports this)

Thanks in advance!

I want to replace the group panel with a gridview.(like the left part of the gantt view).

Is the any ways to customize this?

I need to save the chart in emf. I write

         radChartViewAny.ExportToImage(saveFileDialog1.FileName, radChartViewAny.Size, ImageFormat.Emf);

The chart is saved to a file in emf format, but this is only a parody of emf:

1. The file size is very large. It doesn’t happen if it is a normal emf file

2. If you open this file in any program (for example, Word), then there is a "ladder" effect. Those, the file just contains a graph in the form of bitmap, but not the emf commands

I built a virtual grid which may get large so I am deferring adding a link which may take some processing to find until the row is actually selected.  Is this a good idea?  Can it even be done?  And if so does the entire grid then have to be rebuilt?

I want to add that 10 years ago a Microsoft evangelist recommended I ask for Telerik controls - and when my next job developing web pages had only the default set it was like trying to cook with dull knives when you were used to a razor sharp set.  I have them at my current job - and what a difference it makes!

Hi,

Dim dtArraytemW  as New DataTable()

 Public Sub InitializeDatatable()

dtArraytemW= New DataTable

dtArraytemW.Columns.AddRange(New DataColumn() {New DataColumn("Wage Category", GetType(String)), New DataColumn("Type", GetType(String)),
New DataColumn("# Hours", GetType(String))})
End Sub

dtArraytemW.Rows.Add(0)(0) = "Salary - Office"
dtArraytemW.Rows(0)(1) = "Regular"
dtArraytemW.Rows(0)(2) = 1
dtArraytemW.Rows(0)(3) = 1.5
dtArraytemW.Rows(0)(4) = 2

dtArraytemW.Rows.Add(1)(0) = "Salary - Office"
dtArraytemW.Rows(1)(1) = "Overt0me"
dtArraytemW.Rows(1)(2) = 1
dtArraytemW.Rows(1)(3) = 4.5
dtArraytemW.Rows(1)(4) = 3

dtArraytemW.Rows.Add(2)(0) = "Salary - Office"

dtArraytemW.Rows(2)(2) = 1
dtArraytemW.Rows(2)(3) = 6.3
dtArraytemW.Rows(2)(4) = 1

rdgvWGrd.DataSource = dtArraytemW
