Resources

This example demonstrates how to populate RadGantt with enabled Resources from SqlDataSource. You need to have four SqlDataSource controls in order to acquire the data set for the tasks, their dependencies, the resources and the assignments. In addition, you need to configure the properties available under the DataBindings tag, in order to match the fields in the database tables.
