This example shows the self-referencing hierarchy model of r.a.d.grid. It allows you to build multiple levels of hierarchy from a single table in the data source by specifying relations inside the same table.  You do not need to create separate tables for each child level - one table is sufficient to define the hierarchy schema.  All visual settings will be applied to the nested tables as well.
Below are steps needed to implement the self-referencing feature of the grid:

• add the fields from the grid source which define the parent/child relations (ParentID and ID in this case) to the DataKeyNames array of the MasterTableView
• configure these fields through the SelfReferencingSettings property of the MasterTableView. The ParentKeyName subproperty has to point to the parent item id, while KeyName references the id value for the current table level. 
• define the root level filter for the grid hierarchy depending on your source table conventions (in this demo the root items have a parent ID of 0). This can be done through the FilterExpression property of the MasterTableView instance:
   
  RadGrid1.MasterTableView.FilterExpression = "ParentID = 0"
• you can also set the MaximumDepth sub-property of SelfReferencingSettings (not used in this example) to limit the depth of the nested tables. The default value for MaximumDepth is 10. This property can be set only once when the grid is initialized and can not be modified

In addition, you can hide the header item for the tables in the hierarchy wiring the ItemCreated event of the grid if it is not needed.
