The demo shows how the hierarchical structure of r.a.d.grid can be described and used programmatically.
The RadGrid.MasterTableView represents the top-level table in the hierarchy while each GridTableView control is used to render inner table in the hierarchical structure. Grouping by some of the grid columns is enabled along with the hierarchical look and feel. I addition, we configured various appearance properties for better end user experience.

This example shows how to create the control entirely in the code behind. This means that the grid instance should be created in the PageInit handler and added to a place holder's Controls collection at runtime, after the structure has been created. Note that in this case the grid columns should be added to the Controls collection of the MasterTableView after their attributes are set. No ViewState is required for grid structure to be persisted as it is recreated on each page initialization.

Note that hierarchical structure/grouping is not supported with simple data-binding (calling DataBind()). See the Simple data binding demo from the Populating with data section for more info about the limitations of this binding mode.
