"High Performance with RadGridView and Virtual Mode including Filtering, Sorting and Grouping" example is not working for RadGridView Q3 2015. When I click on the Column header for sorting ( same thing for grouping and filtering)  and I m getting exception "Sorting operation is not supported in VirtualMode.".  Same sample is working for Q3 2014. Following is the URL for the sample 
http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/winforms/gridview/details/high-performance-with-radgridview-and-virtual-mode-including-filtering-sorting-and-grouping

To reproduce: 

1. Bind RadGridView to a collection of business objects where one of the properties is Nullable<DateTime>.
2. Leave one of the items with an empty date (null value).
3. Copy the entire row and try to paste in one of the grid rows. The FormatException is thrown.

Sub New()
    InitializeComponent()

    Dim items As New List(Of Item)

    items.Add(New Item(1, DateTime.Now.AddDays(2), "Item1"))
    items.Add(New Item(2, Nothing, "Item2"))
    items.Add(New Item(3, DateTime.Now.AddDays(4), "Item3"))
    items.Add(New Item(4, DateTime.Now.AddDays(5), "Item4"))

    Me.RadGridView1.DataSource = items
    Me.RadGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill 
End Sub

Public Class Item
    Private _id As Integer
    Private _createdOn As Nullable(Of DateTime)
    Private _title As String

    Public Sub New(id As Integer, createdOn As Nullable(Of DateTime), title As String)
        Me._id = id
        Me._createdOn = createdOn
        Me._title = title
    End Sub

    Public Property Id() As Integer
        Get
            Return _id
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            _id = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property CreatedOn() As Nullable(Of DateTime)
        Get
            Return _createdOn
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Nullable(Of DateTime))
            _createdOn = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property Title() As String
        Get
            Return _title
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _title = value
        End Set
    End Property
End Class

Workaround: use a TypeConverter

Sub New()
    InitializeComponent()

    Dim items As New List(Of Item)

    items.Add(New Item(1, DateTime.Now.AddDays(2), "Item1"))
    items.Add(New Item(2, Nothing, "Item2"))
    items.Add(New Item(3, DateTime.Now.AddDays(4), "Item3"))
    items.Add(New Item(4, DateTime.Now.AddDays(5), "Item4"))

    Me.RadGridView1.DataSource = items
    Me.RadGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill
    DirectCast(Me.RadGridView1.Columns(1), GridViewDateTimeColumn).DataTypeConverter=New NullableDateTimeConverter()
End Sub

Public Class NullableDateTimeConverter
Inherits TypeConverter
   
    Public Overrides Function CanConvertFrom(ByVal context As ITypeDescriptorContext, ByVal sourceType As Type) As Boolean
        Return sourceType.Equals(GetType(String))
    End Function

    Public Overrides Function ConvertFrom(ByVal context As ITypeDescriptorContext, ByVal culture As CultureInfo, ByVal value As Object) As Object
        Dim parsedDate As DateTime
        If DateTime.TryParse(value.ToString(), parsedDate) Then
            Return parsedDate
        End If 
        Return Nothing
    End Function
End Class

Public Class Item
    Private _id As Integer
    Private _createdOn As Nullable(Of DateTime)
    Private _title As String

    Public Sub New(id As Integer, createdOn As Nullable(Of DateTime), title As String)
        Me._id = id
        Me._createdOn = createdOn
        Me._title = title
    End Sub

    Public Property Id() As Integer
        Get
            Return _id
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            _id = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property CreatedOn() As Nullable(Of DateTime)
        Get
            Return _createdOn
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Nullable(Of DateTime))
            _createdOn = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property Title() As String
        Get
            Return _title
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _title = value
        End Set
    End Property
End Class

To reproduce: use DataAccess to connect to Northwind.Customer table:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    EntitiesModel1 context = new EntitiesModel1();
    var query = (from c in context.Customers where c.CustomerID.Contains("f") select c).ToList();
    this.radGridView1.DataSource =  query;
    
    SortDescriptor descriptor = new SortDescriptor();
    descriptor.PropertyName = "CustomerID";
    descriptor.Direction = ListSortDirection.Ascending;
    this.radGridView1.MasterTemplate.SortDescriptors.Add(descriptor);
    this.radGridView1.CurrentRow = this.radGridView1.Rows.Last();
}

Run the project and press the Delete key several times.

Workaround: use BindingSource as RadGridView.DataSource:

BindingSource bs = new BindingSource();
bs.DataSource = query;
this.radGridView1.DataSource = bs;

To reproduce:

Sub New()
    InitializeComponent()

    Dim dt As New DataTable()
    dt.Columns.Add("Name", GetType(String))
    dt.Columns.Add("Price", GetType(Decimal))
    dt.Columns.Add("Id", GetType(Integer))
    dt.Columns.Add("ActivatedOn", GetType(DateTime))
    For i As Integer = 0 To 4
        dt.Rows.Add("Item" & i, i * 0.25, i, DateTime.Now.AddHours(i))
    Next
    Me.RadGridView1.DataSource = dt
    Me.RadGridView1.Columns("Id").[ReadOnly] = True
    Me.RadGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill
    AddHandler Me.RadGridView1.DefaultValuesNeeded, AddressOf radGridView1_DefaultValuesNeeded
    Me.RadGridView1.NewRowEnterKeyMode = RadGridViewNewRowEnterKeyMode.EnterMovesToLastAddedRow
End Sub
Private Sub radGridView1_DefaultValuesNeeded(sender As Object, e As GridViewRowEventArgs)
    e.Row.Cells("Id").Value = Me.radGridView1.Rows.Count
    e.Row.Cells("ActivatedOn").Value = DateTime.Now
End Sub

Select the read-only cell inside the new row and press Enter. You will notice that two duplicated rows are added.

Workaround: handle the RadGridView.PreviewKeyDown event and change the current  column to one that is not read-only

 AddHandler Me.RadGridView1.PreviewKeyDown, AddressOf GridPreviewKeyDown

 Private Sub GridPreviewKeyDown(sender As Object, e As PreviewKeyDownEventArgs)
        If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
            Me.RadGridView1.CurrentColumn = Me.RadGridView1.Columns(0)
            Me.RadGridView1.BeginEdit()
        End If
    End Sub 

Example : if we have 5 rows in the grid and if we copy 10 rows from excel and paste in first row, only first 5 records gets pasted and remaining 5 would be ignored.

To reproduce:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    List<Item> items = new List<Item>();
    for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
    {
        items.Add(new Item(i, "Product" + i, 0.25m * i, i));
    }
    this.radGridView1.DataSource = items;
    GridViewDecimalColumn col = new GridViewDecimalColumn("Calculated Column");             
    col.Expression = "Quantity*Price/100";
    this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(col);
    this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
}

public class Item
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public string Name { get; set; }

    public decimal Price { get; set; }

    public int Quantity { get; set; }

    public Item(int id, string name, decimal price, int quantity)
    {
        this.Id = id;
        this.Name = name;
        this.Price = price;
        this.Quantity = quantity;
    }
}

MemoryStream s = new MemoryStream();

private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    s = new MemoryStream();
    this.radGridView1.SaveLayout(s);
}

private void radButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.radGridView1.LoadLayout(s);
}

private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
    s.Close();
}


Workaround: before loading the layout, clear the columns

How to reproduce:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData();
        this.Load += Form1_Load;
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.radGridView1.SynchronizeCurrentRowInSplitMode = true;
        this.radGridView1.SplitMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridViewSplitMode.Vertical;
    }

    private DataTable GetData()
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
        dt.Columns.Add("Age", typeof(int));
        dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime));
        dt.Columns.Add("Bool", typeof(bool));
        for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
        {
            dt.Rows.Add("Name " + i, i, DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(i), i % 2 == 0 ? true : false);
        }

        return dt;
    }
}



Workaround: 

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData();
        this.radGridView1.ViewDefinition = new SplitViewDefintion();
        this.Load += Form1_Load;
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.radGridView1.SynchronizeCurrentRowInSplitMode = true;
        this.radGridView1.SplitMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridViewSplitMode.Vertical;
    }

    private DataTable GetData()
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
        dt.Columns.Add("Age", typeof(int));
        dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime));
        dt.Columns.Add("Bool", typeof(bool));
        for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
        {
            dt.Rows.Add("Name " + i, i, DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(i), i % 2 == 0 ? true : false);
        }

        return dt;
    }
}

public class SplitViewDefintion : TableViewDefinition
{
    public override IRowView CreateViewUIElement(GridViewInfo viewInfo)
    {
        return new MyGridTableElement();
    }
}

public class MyGridTableElement : GridTableElement
{
    protected override RadScrollBarElement CreateScrollBarElement()
    {
        return new MyRadScrollbarElement();
    }
}

public class MyRadScrollbarElement : RadScrollBarElement
{
    protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType
    {
        get
        {
            return typeof(RadScrollBarElement);
        }
    }

    protected override void OnMouseDown(MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        if (Cursor.Current == Cursors.SizeWE || Cursor.Current == Cursors.SizeNS)
        {
            return;
        }

        base.OnMouseDown(e);
    }
}

Currently, in order to display the "Deleter Row" context menu item, you should set both properties, AllowEditRow and AllowDeleteRow, to true.  However, if you use the Delete key, it will remove the row if only the AllowDeleteRow property is set to true.

To reproduce:

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
dt.Rows.Add(1, new string('G', 32001));
this.radGridView1.DataSource = dt;
this.radGridView1.PrintPreview();


Workaround:  this.radGridView1.PrintCellFormatting+=radGridView1_PrintCellFormatting;

 private void radGridView1_PrintCellFormatting(object sender, PrintCellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {
            e.PrintCell.Text = e.PrintCell.Text.Substring(0,Math.Min(e.PrintCell.Text.Length, 32000));
        }

To reproduce: change the value for a GridCheckBoxCellElement. The editor is not active. However, if you click again over the current cell, the editor will be activated.

Workaround: use a custom row behavior to close the editor:
 //register the custom row  behavior
 BaseGridBehavior gridBehavior = sourceRadGridView.GridBehavior as BaseGridBehavior;
 gridBehavior.UnregisterBehavior(typeof(GridViewDataRowInfo));
 gridBehavior.RegisterBehavior(typeof(GridViewDataRowInfo), new CustomGridDataRowBehavior());


public class CustomGridDataRowBehavior : GridDataRowBehavior
{
    public override bool OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        bool result = base.OnMouseUp(e);
        if (this.MasterTemplate.CurrentColumn is GridViewCheckBoxColumn )
        {
            this.GridViewElement.EndEdit();
        }
        return result;
    }
}

To reproduce: 

1. Perform searching in the grid.
2. Group by a random column. 
3. Navigating with next/previous buttons do not navigate the results in the displayed order.  

Workaround: set the EnablePaging property to false.

To reproduce:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radGridView1.Columns.Add("Col1");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("word \u00AD word");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("word - word");
}

Workaround: replace "\u00AD" with "-"

private void radGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    e.CellElement.Text = e.CellElement.Text.Replace("\u00AD", "-");
}

To reproduce: 

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ 
    this.productsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Products);
    this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.productsBindingSource;
    GridViewSummaryItem summaryItem = new GridViewSummaryItem();
    summaryItem.Name = "UnitPrice";
    summaryItem.Aggregate = GridAggregateFunction.Count;
    GridViewSummaryRowItem summaryRowItem = new GridViewSummaryRowItem();
    summaryRowItem.Add(summaryItem);
    this.radGridView1.SummaryRowsTop.Add(summaryRowItem);
    
    GroupDescriptor descriptor1 = new GroupDescriptor();
    descriptor1.GroupNames.Add("CategoryID", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    this.radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor1);
    GroupDescriptor descriptor11 = new GroupDescriptor();
    descriptor11.GroupNames.Add("SupplierID", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    this.radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor11);
    GroupDescriptor descriptor2 = new GroupDescriptor();
    descriptor2.GroupNames.Add("QuantityPerUnit", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    descriptor2.GroupNames.Add("UnitsInStock", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    this.radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor2);
    GroupDescriptor descriptor3 = new GroupDescriptor();
    descriptor3.GroupNames.Add("UnitsOnOrder", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    descriptor3.GroupNames.Add("ReorderLevel", ListSortDirection.Descending);
    this.radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor3);
    GroupDescriptor descriptor4 = new GroupDescriptor();
    descriptor4.GroupNames.Add("Discontinued", ListSortDirection.Ascending);
    this.radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(descriptor4);
}

private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    GridViewSpreadExport spreadExporter = new GridViewSpreadExport(this.radGridView1);
    SpreadExportRenderer exportRenderer = new SpreadExportRenderer();
    string filePath = @"..\..\exported" + DateTime.Now.ToShortTimeString().Replace(":", "_") + ".xlsx";
    spreadExporter.ExportGroupedColumns = true;
    spreadExporter.ExportChildRowsGrouped = true;
     spreadExporter.HiddenColumnOption = Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.HiddenOption.DoNotExport;
    spreadExporter.ExportVisualSettings = true;
    spreadExporter.SummariesExportOption = Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.SummariesOption.ExportAll;
    spreadExporter.RunExport(filePath, exportRenderer);

    Process.Start(filePath);
}


Workaround: set the ExportChildRowsGrouped property to false.

To reproduce:

1. Use the following code:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.customersTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Customers);

    this.radGridView1.DataSource = customersBindingSource;
    this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
    this.radGridView1.CellEndEdit += radGridView1_CellEndEdit;
    this.radGridView1.AutoSizeRows = true;
    SortDescriptor descriptor = new SortDescriptor();
    descriptor.PropertyName = "Country"; 
    descriptor.Direction = ListSortDirection.Ascending;
    this.radGridView1.MasterTemplate.SortDescriptors.Add(descriptor);
}

void radGridView1_CellEndEdit(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    int selectedRowIndex = this.radGridView1.ChildRows.IndexOf(this.radGridView1.CurrentRow);
    this.radGridView1.TableElement.ScrollToRow(selectedRowIndex);
}

2. Modify cell value in the sorted column. After the editor value is confirmed by pressing Enter, you scroll to the current column. However, you do not observe the expected behavior.

Workaround: set the AutoSizeRows property to false.

To reproduce:
- Remove the new row from the grid.
- Start the application and delete all rows.
- When the last row is deleted the SelectionChanged does not fire.

Workaround:
- Use the UserDeletedRow event instead. 

Workaround: use a GridPrintStyle and define a HierarchyIndent = 0
private void PrintGrid()
{
    GridPrintStyle style = new GridPrintStyle();
    style.HierarchyIndent = 0;
    this.radGridView1.PrintStyle = style;
    this.radGridView1.PrintPreview();
}

To reproduce:
private void RadForm1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
	DataTable dt = new DataTable();

	dt.Columns.Add("col1", typeof(bool));
	dt.Columns.Add("col2", typeof(bool));

	dt.Rows.Add(0, 1);
	dt.Rows.Add(0, 1);
	dt.Rows.Add(0, 1);

	RadGridView1.DataSource = dt;

	((Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCheckBoxColumn)RadGridView1.Columns(0)).EnableHeaderCheckBox = true;
	((Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCheckBoxColumn)RadGridView1.Columns(1)).EnableHeaderCheckBox = true;

	RadGridView1.HeaderCellToggleStateChanged += radGridView1_HeaderCellToggleStateChanged;

}

- Start the application and click in the second row in the first column.

Workaraound:
public class MyGridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement : GridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement
{
    public MyGridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement(GridViewDataColumn col, GridRowElement row)
        : base(col, row)
    { }
    protected override void SetCheckBoxState(ToggleState state)
    {
        if (this.ColumnInfo.Name != this.GridViewElement.CurrentCell.ColumnInfo.Name)
        {
            return;
        }
        base.SetCheckBoxState(state);
    }
}
