EJ2.Grids set up stacked header column as foreign key column

[Jason Leach]

When making a foreign key column in a grid i do this:

<e-grid-column field="JobDescription" headerText="Job Description" foreignKeyField="ListMemberId" foreignKeyValue="Description" dataSource="ViewBag.jobDescriptions" width="250"></e-grid-column>

and it works great.

when making a stacked header grid column i am using this method

@{

 var stackedHeader4 = new List<Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.GridColumn>() {

            new Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.GridColumn { Field = "LeadFound", HeaderText = "Lead Found", EditType="BooleanEdit", Width="140"},

...

}

and it works great.

but I can't seem to get a foreign key in my stacked header column using ViewBag as a source, as I don't seem to have the right syntax.

            new Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.GridColumn { Field = "RestoreType", HeaderText = "Restore Type", ForeignKeyField="ListMemberId", ForeignKeyValue="Description", DataSource=@ViewBag.restoreType, Width="200"},

and it fails miserably.

anyone know how to do this?

Solved it myself! (yay)

the solution is to use a ViewData["thing"] not VIewBag.

new Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.GridColumn { Field = "RestoreType", HeaderText = "Restore Type", ForeignKeyField="ListMemberId", ForeignKeyValue="Description", DataSource=ViewData["restoreType"], Width="200"}
