Hi,
How can i add an extra row or two after the summaries row in the grid which is bounded to a data-source. The purpose is to print some text on that newly added rows.
Regards,
Sohail Kazmi
There's no built-in way to add rows to the grid after the summary row. But you can have multiple levels of summaries. So if you just need some extra space to put some text, you could add some extra summaries to the same column and they will show up stacked on top of each other.
You could control the text of these 'placeholder' summaries either by making them Custom summaries and using an ICustomSummaryCalculator or by using a CreationFilter to manipulate the UIElements. It depends what you need to display and how much room you need to display it.
Hi Mike,

Hi Mike,With reference to your reply dated 12-09-2011 you mentioned "You are trying to do something here that the grid is simply not designed to do.", actually i m trying to use the grid as a report source, and i think i m wrong, am i ?, instead i should use reporting tool for that. Kindly guide me.
Hi Sohail,
If you are interesting in the Reporting tools, I recommend that you post your question in the reporting forum here:
NetAdvantage Reporting - Infragistics Community
I'm not that familiar with those tools. :)
With reference to my previous post i asked "actually i m trying to use the grid as a report source, and i think i m wrong, am i ?, instead i should use reporting tool for that. Kindly guide me."
Actually the generated print with FarPoint, I treat that as a report, the same i m trying with the UltraGrid, am i wrong in my thinking or should i use a reporting tool for that ?, that's what i want to know.
Hello Sohail,
From looking at what you're trying to do, I believe our Reporting product would be a better solution. I am not all that familiar with that product, though, so I would suggest posting a question in the NetAdvantage Reporting (http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/default.aspx?GroupID=78) forum.
Hi Dave,
Thanks for your suggestion, and kindly pay my best regards to Mike for those helpful replies.
