Thanks for your prompt response, however the basic solution compiles, but crashes on running.

I really want to see how all these controls work, but now have spent more than 24 hours trying to get a simple application to work without success no matter what I try.

Please advise

Hello Mark,

I'm afraid that I cannot completely understand your question. Do you want to use TextEditor as a search field and then use its value to get some data from the server and populate the igGrid?

Best regards,

That's exactly what I need to do, similar to the figure below where the results from the TextEditor search string populates the grid.

Hello Mark,

This can be achieved by using the existing filtering capabilities of igDataSource.

First use the igEditor.value API to get the search value from the editor. Then use the igGrid.dataSourceObject API to get a reference to the igDataSource.

Finally set the filtering expressions of the igDataSource (igDataSource.settings.filtering.expressions) and call igDataSource.dataBind.

Attached you can find sample demonstrating the approach.

Many thanks for your time and effort again Martin.

I will go through this over the weekend and try to implement for our requirement.

Please disregard my previous emails of today as I have resolved the issue and have it working fine.

Sorry to have troubled you.

With reference to my last response I attach the Model, View and Controller for your perusal.

Good Afternoon Martin

I have been through the attached solution relating to the TextEditor and Grid filtering, however the solution compiles, but does not work.

I think it may be due to the following error and would appreciate assistance with this issue.

Thanks
