saving grid xml layout to SQL database

created 19 years ago

Is there an easy way to use the gridView.SaveLayoutToXML() method to save the XML as a CLOB rather then to a file?

Hi,
You may save the grid layout to a file and then using the FileStream read this file and save it to a field. One more solution is to use the GridView.SaveLayoutToStream method.
Thanks,
Plato

      Hello Osmani,
      Would you please clarify which platform are you targeting? Do you use WPF Grid?
      I am looking forward to your response.

        Hello Sasha
        I am working in WPF with GridControl, Devexpress 14.2.6
        I was trying to save my gridcontrol layout in my database with datatype XML but I have a serialization exception.
        I use the code that I posted, is that the correct way to do that? I just want to save my layout in my database.
        Thank you
