ForeignKey Column
About this example ASPXRazor
This example shows how to use Telerik Grid for ASP.NET MVC foreign key column to show related data.
The related data should be provided as either SelectList or IEnumerable:
Html.Telerik().Grid>ClientEditableOrder>()
.Name("Grid")
.Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Bound(o => o.OrderID).Width(100);
columns.ForeignKey(o => o.EmployeeID, (IEnumerable)ViewData["employees"],
"ID", "Name").Width(230);
columns.Bound(o => o.OrderDate).Width(150);
columns.Bound(o => o.Freight).Width(220);
})
When switched to edit mode, by default Telerik DropDownList for ASP.NET MVC will be shown as column editor. This can be changed by modifing the GridForeignKey editor template.
