Hi,
I'm interested in Q3 above. I use a templated GridColumn but it has more than one field in it (something like a guest name and some profile notes under the name in the same column using the context property to get the values of the two fields). The search function works only with the data of the column which is in the Field property. So if I set Field="GuestName" it searches the guest name but not the notes and the other way around. Is there a solution to this?
If not, is there a way I could simulate the browser's Ctrl+F (Find) which works with everything on the page? (Not an issue as in this case the Grid takes up all the page).
Thank you.

Hi Spyros,
Thanks for the update.
Query: “ The search function works only with the data of the column which is in the Field property.”
As explained earlier, search function or other DataOperations will execute based on the datasource value bound to particular column’s Field property value only. It will not be possible for Grid component to display two fields value in single column without using ColumnTemplate and perform searching operations. This is the default behavior of Grid component.
Query: “is there a way I could simulate the browser's Ctrl+F (Find) which works with everything on the page? ”
Yes, you can simulate the browser global search (Ctrl + F) which
will possible only for currently visible page. It will not be possible for
other page records in Grid.
