Hi,

I copied, or attempted to reproduce, the code for programatically expanding the groupBy rows but am not getting any output.

I am using VS 2005 with NetAdvantage 6.3 Web.  *We can upgrade to VS 2008, yet.

How do I get this to group on the two columns indicated and have the output show expanded.

Thank you.

This is my code:
    Private Sub BindData()
        ' Enable paging by default
        Me.ugGridExceptions.DisplayLayout.Pager.AllowPaging = True

        Me.ugGridExceptions.DataSource = Me.dsAttendance.Tables("usp_ReportInfo").DefaultView
        Me.ugGridExceptions.DataBind()

        Me.ugGridExceptions.DisplayLayout.Bands.FromKey("Id").Columns.Band.Columns.FromKey("UserID").IsGroupByColumn = True
        Me.ugGridExceptions.DisplayLayout.Bands.FromKey("Employee").Columns.Band.Columns.FromKey("Employee").IsGroupByColumn = True
        Me.ugGridExceptions.PerformGroupRows()
        Me.ugGridExceptions.ExpandAll()

        ' Disable paging if there aren't enough rows for more than one page
        If (Me.ugGridExceptions.DisplayLayout.Pager.PageCount < 2) Then
            Me.ugGridExceptions.DisplayLayout.Pager.AllowPaging = False
        End If
    End Sub

Hello,

There is a similar thread in the forum discussing the same set of problems - programmatically grouping, then expanding grouped rows. The technique suggested there involves hooking the PreRenderComplete event and expanding there.

For more details and sample source code, please visit this thread:

Hope this helps.

The problem is I don't see the "IsGroupByColumn" attribute after typing Columns[X].

I do see "PerformGroupRows" however, I would like to, On Page Load to have the needed columns grouped.

Your help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello,

Most probably IsGroupByColumn property has been added at a later point to the grid. 2006.3 is two years old, is there a reason that prevents you from upgrading? There are plenty of new features implemented and issues addressed in the newer versions.

In any case, I can suggest taking a look at the following article that refers to older grid versions:

Maybe there are good suggestions there
