How to merge columns using Telerik RadGrid control

Question

I know I need to use Template Columns, but I am not clearly understanding how to use it.

I have a datasource which returns a collection, I can assign each property in the collection to a column.

But how do I:

• Merge two columns? such as col.prop1 +' '+ col.prop2 ?
• Execute some methods on the properties such as col.prop1.ToString(overloaded)

A simple codebehind example will help. All I can find are very complex controls and stuff for examples..

Thank you.

The only way that comes to my mind is to to use binding expressions for the properties and code-behind methods that return the results from the property methods through those binding expressions.
