hi michael

im afraid it didnt fix the problem, I still have no scaffolding wizard

mark

finally managed to get the thing to build and run, loaded up the page with the grid on it, and.......nothing, no grid gets rendered, i give up !

looks like theres a bug in the scaffolder

.PrimaryKey("ContractId");  ---> its put a semi colon here

This whole thing is really flaky and is really putting me off purchasing these controls.  The igniteUI scafolder adds a view (.cshtml page) this page contains no HTML whatsoever.  The second time I used it, Im now getting these errors in the page

@using Infragistics.Web.Mvc;  --> the namespace name Infragistics could not be found

@model IQueryable<CHPWeb.ViewModels.Contracts.ContractViewModel> ---> the type or namespace name IQueryable could not be found

@(Html.Infragistics()  ---> the name HTML does not exist in the current context

.Grid(Model)  ---> the name 'Model'  does not exist in the current context

.PrimaryKey("ContractId");  ----> '} expected'

.UpdateUrl(Url.Action("SaveData"))  ---> the name 'UpdateUrl does not exist in the current context'

how am I supposed to use these controls ? nothing seems to work

I still have a problem though, this is the code in the view that the scaffolder generated

@using Infragistics.Web.Mvc;
@model IQueryable<CHPWeb.ViewModels.Contracts.ContractViewModel>

@(Html.Infragistics()
    .Grid(Model)
    .ID("igGrid")
    .Width("600px")
    .Height("600px")
    .AutoGenerateColumns(false)
    .PrimaryKey("ContractId");  ---> error here
    .UpdateUrl(Url.Action("SaveData"))  ----> error here
    .Columns(column =>
    {
        column.For(x => x.ContractId).HeaderText("ContractId");
        column.For(x => x.ContractEndUserOrg).HeaderText("ContractEndUserOrg");
        column.For(x => x.ContractOrgName).HeaderText("ContractOrgName");

        column.For(x => x.Strategy1Percentage).HeaderText("Strategy1Percentage");

        column.For(x => x.Strategy3Name).HeaderText("Strategy3Name");
        column.For(x => x.Strategy3Percentage).HeaderText("Strategy3Percentage");
        column.For(x => x.Strategy4Name).HeaderText("Strategy4Name");
        column.For(x => x.Strategy3Percentage).HeaderText("Strategy4Percentage");
    })
    .Features(f =>
    {  
        f.AppendRowsOnDemand()
            .ChunkSize(25)
            .LoadTrigger(LoadTrigger.Auto);
        f.Filtering()
            .Mode(FilterMode.Advanced);
        f.Paging()
            .PageSize(25);
        f.Resizing();
        f.Responsive();
        f.Selection()
            .Mode(SelectionMode.Row);
        f.Updating()
            .EnableAddRow(true)
            .EnableDeleteRow(true)
            .EditMode(GridEditMode.Row);
    })
    .DataBind()
    .Render())

there is no intellisense available so i cant modify the code myself to see what code options are available

also here

.PrimaryKey("ContractId"); -- > my IDE says '} expected'

and also here

.UpdateUrl(Url.Action("SaveData"))

my IDE says 'the name UdateUrl does not exist in the current context'

basically its unusable
