Problems with Designer for Infragistics Web grid

Hi,

I seem to be hitting problems with the Infragistics WebGrid.  Things seem to work well enough until I set the DataSourceId to a CslaDataSource.  Then the designer seems to stop putting the relevent html into the aspx file.. although design mode still shows what it should, at least until I close and re-open the designer.

Anyone have problems like this, or did I mess up my installation somehow?

Hi Andy,
There's a special implementation that a datasource is supposed to provide to return design-time data, as well as give schema information about the underlying data. It sounds like something is going wrong there..

You can still bind the UltraWebGrid to your datasource at run-time, by either using the DataSourceID, or setting the DataSource property to the DataSource's DataSourceView object. Just be sure to set that in the WebGrid's InitializeDataSource event.
