Grouping

The demo shows how to apply group setting to the data source and retrieve the grouped data. This is done through the GroupExpressions collection:
<GroupExpressions>
   <telerik:ClientDataSourceGroupExpression FieldName="Name" SortOrder="Asc">
   </telerik:ClientDataSourceGroupExpression>
</GroupExpressions>
  • DefaultVB.aspx
  • scripts.js
  • styles.css
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="true"  %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="qsf" Namespace="Telerik.QuickStart" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="telerik" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" %>
