is it compile error ? what is the error message ?

*Compilation Error* _Invalid anonymous type member declarator. Anonymous type members must be declared with a member assignment, simple name or member access._

you get the compile error because of some syntax error in naming the members, but regardless in this version (4) the only way you can set a footer is if your column has a Name without [. ,] (bound to a single first level property) and in the Make Footer you set a value to the property with the same name, so with the code shown above Name and Date will work, CountryName won't

I C, Thanks for clarifying that.

now (version 4.5) there's Column.FooterClientFormat, see it being used in the updated demo: http://demo.aspnetawesome.com/GridDemo/Grouping
