Question

I have a grid, and say I am in given telerik:GridTemplateColumn (or GridboundColumn?) I want to display the result of 2 other columns, how would I do this?

In asp.net repeater I could do:

<%# Container.DataItem(“Col3”) %> <%# Container.DataItem(“Col4”) %>

How would I do this in a telerik grid?

You should be able to use very similar syntax. Inside the GridTemplateColumn, you need to make an ItemTemplate. In that, you can put whatever markup you want to be displayed in the column. For example:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Col3 and 4" UniqueName="TemplateColumn">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <%# Container.DataItem("Col3") %> <%# Container.DataItem("Col4") %>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

For more information, you can reference the documentation for the various column types: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grid-column-types.html (you’ll need to scroll down a ways to get to the section on GridTemplateColumn.

Also, I’m assuming you are using Visual Basic? Otherwise, I think the syntax would be different.
