BindingList<ParentObject> bound to grid question

Hi all,

I have a BindingList attached to a grouping grid. Each parent object may or may not be an instance of a child object (Child1 : ParentObject, Child2 : ParentObject)

Child1 has a property called ChildOne and Child2 has a property called ChildTwo.

Is there any way to show ChildOne and ChildTwo in the grid taking into account that such a property may not exist (since the object can be ParentObject, Child1 or Child2)

Thanks,
Jack

Thanks for your reply but i was actually looking for something else.

The code would be something like BindingList

ParentObj contains property Prop
ChildOne extends ParentObj and has a property called ChildOneProp
ChildTwo extends ParentObj and has a property called ChildTwoProp

So the BindingList contains object of type ParentObj which may as well be of type ChildOne or ChildTwo.

I need to gain access to ChildOneProp and ChildTwoProp and show them in my grid. Is this possible?

Hi Jack,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

I could able to see the issue of BindingList bound to grid that you have mentioned here. On analysing i could find that it is impossible to bind the bindinglist of child to parent grid though it could access child's data.

Please let me know any for clarifications.
Regards,
Nisha.
