Hi all,

I am just working on a DNNGrid(RadGrid from Telerik wrapped into DNN). I can not find any documentation about the wrappers or the licences.
http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/W...
This is the best Link I could found about the wrappers. My question is if this is the current state of the wrappers and if I have to do any other things to get the DNNGrid working fine?

Is it possible for me to use the Designer while developing to create the DNNGrid on the page before runtime?
I have a DNN 5.06.01 running and I am trying to get a DNNGrid via ObjectDataSource and DataSet working.

I create the Grid at runtime with:

DNNGrid oTestGrid = new DNNGrid();
**filling the grid with datasource and setting up soem other things like Pagesize and so on**
phTestGrid.Controls.Add(oTestGrid);
oTestGrid.DataBind();


the phTestGrid is a asp:Placeholder.
Is this the right way to get the Grid working?
because of if I try to switch the page from 1 to 3 it will switch but back to 1 it will load and load and never stop loading (you can see it on the Statusbar: oTestGrid.ShowStatusBar = true;)
If I try to reload the page (clicking on some other tab in the menubar) the following error coming up:

It would be great if some one can help me with this issue and/or give me some hints or links how to use the wrapper DNNGrid.

best regards,

Marc

Hi Cathal,

thanks for your answer!
In the Second link this is not a dynamical added DNNGrid.
As you can see in the first line he is filling a existing object with a new DNNGrid (where is the instance?). He can DataBind() the grid before it is existing on the page (controls.add()): this causes an error normally. I think he has always an existing instance of a telerik:RadGrid on his aspx page and is filling it again in this method. If I am doing so I can get the Viewstate working, too.

The third link is interesting but I cant get it. I am also creating and adding the grid on "page_Init()" but my viewstate seems not to work correctly.
The msdnpost has just words but no sample.

Is it possible for you to give me a sample or hitns when to create the control, when to add and when to fill (databind())?

My first postback (for example for the paging) is working but the second one is loading infinitely (reason is the damaged or missingviewstate of the control, I think (correct me please if I am wrong)).

combined question:
how is it possible to make the DNNGrid "ajaxified" (as the Telerik guys call it). I cant use the "RadAjaxManager" because of Community Edition.
Can I get the Grid ajaxified in any other ways? would be great if you can find some more great links :-)

best regards,

Marc
