Hello Madhavan,

If I am not mistaken, when you save a table structure of WebGrid, the data is not being saved.
It will save the structure include the data member.
However, when you load the structure, this structure must be loaded with similiar structure.

Example,

I saved two layout. One is for Customer layout and the others for Category.
I could not load Customer layout for my Category sample. The structure definetely would be different.

Hello Handy,

I know data is not getting saved.

Without the data only the primary table column headers only will get displayed.

Since there is no any record for the primary table the child tables column headers will not be able to see.Since there won't be a plus sign.

Our requirement is to allow the Column headers in parent table and child tables and save the structure but the grid will render it with data.This structure is saved in db.Then this structure is getting used in places where grid will render with data.

Is there anyway we can achieve this?

Tell me also whether We can populate some dummy data and render the rows of parent and child tables.

Please advice.

Regards,

Madhavan

Hello,

If there is no data, you could not show the child table. Only parent columns are showed in header. Child is not showed because it depends on parent row. If there is no parent row, then the child would not show the child. So, your scenario is not possible.

If you want to populate some dummy data, you can find our sample at WebGridTutorial>>V5.0\Hierarchical_Unbound.aspx.
