I created a support ticket and asked the following question:

I am binding a RadGridView to a SQL Server table.
The code below returns the following Data Exception Error:
Cannot set column 'SSAN'. The value violates the MaxLength limit of this column.

The SSAN field is a varchar(9). It should store 111223333 and not 111-22-3333. How can I set the column to save the text without the literals?

 

Svett from Telerik answered with the following:

You can achieve that by creating a custom editor:
Then you should use the EditorRequired event of RadGridView to replace the default one:



I did not realize that my ticked had been closed because of my delayed response and I asked  Svett if the following would not also be a solution:
Can anyone tell me if this is not an acceptable way to only have the numbers saved to the database? 

Upgraded to Version 2012.2.726.40 today and have been struggling to get my project working again. 

One thing I noticed right away is that my command buttonelements in my grid no longer display their images.

here's how I am adding them in code:

Other than the Telerik update - nothing else has changed.

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.  This is extremely urgent as I will be demoing this product early next week.

thanks!


Note:  I am using 4 different themes: Office2010Blue, Black and Silver and Windows7.  All themes show same behavior.

So here is our scenario:

We have a main executable (app) with docking enabled.  A Left Panel and a Right panel.  Each of them can be undocked and pulled out of the application.

The left panel is a no brainer it contains windows controls, etc. 

The right panel has a few windows controls, and a user control that we created and also has docking enabled?

So there are a couple questions:

1. Is this scenario able to be accomplished? 
2. Can we build a user control that contains docking?
3. If the user control, has a docked panel(s), can we pull those out not only from the user control but also from the main application?

I hope that makes sense.  Thank you in advance for any tips, gotchas, etc.

Please help me for setting the theme for grid view.

Thanks for support.

how do I add a border to selected RadLabels?
I am skinning the entire Winforms app with Desert
the following routine only seems to expand the size of the label
I am hoping to find kode to mimic BorderStyle=FixedSingle

I am replacing as many Microsoft controls with Telerik Winforms controls in order to prepare for a move to Windows 8
the app uses Microsoft Ink
the Telerik textbox doesn't seem to want to hook up with Ink
here's the kode
if txtSignature is a Microsoft textbox it works
if it is a RadTextBox it doesn't

I'm trying to get some standard Winforms code moved over to use the Telerik library. It's hard to figure out how to move over standard combobox code. In my standard combobox code, I could simply handle the "SelectedValueChanged" event. This event is only fired when the user actually selects a value (i.e. clicks or presses 'Enter'), even in auto-complete mode.

For the Telerik "RadDropDownList", the "SelectedValueChanged" event fires every time the user moves the cursor down a list of matching items. To me, this seems wrong. The selected value is not changed yet, not until the user presses 'Enter' or clicks the mouse on a particular item. Nevertheless, right or wrong, is there an optimal way to make a "RadDropDownList" work like a combobox? I really won't want to write hundreds of lines of code to handle every variation of key and mouse clicks to try and figure out what the user is doing.

More generally, is there any guide or cookbook that shows a person what is involved with changing each type of standard Windows control over to the corresponding Telerik control? This would be really useful. It took me an entire day to figure out that a Telerik "RadSplitButton" isn't really a true split button (i.e the same functionality as a button and a drop-down menu button), but is more simplistic, sort of a "menu item button". The best way to port code from Windows split buttons to Telerik without losing functionality is to use a separate RadButton and a separate RadDropDownButton. Some sort of guide book would be immensely helpful.

Thanks.

Hi,

My grid has been grouped and ShowTotals is true.  I need not display totals for all columns.  I need to display show totals only for specific fields.  Request you to let me know if i need to set any properties or write any events to get this feature.

Thanks in advance.

And also a question how to create header for the chart?

I'm trying to add radchartview to my form but manually(without using toolbox).
But when I run my application and when I press button to call my form with radchartview I've got messagebox with 
telerik.wincontrols.radelement.backgroundshape.

What's the problem? My code in initializecomponent
