I have a user control with a RadGrid in my applicaiton.
The RadGrid fills properly by binding a datatable to the grid. It shows properly on the screen with data.
Once I try to Sort or group, I am getting this error:
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am on Version 2019.2.514.40 of Telerik asp.net controls.
Unable to cast object of type 'ASP.masterpages_main_master' to type 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridTableView'.Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

While doing more research I did find this article describing a very similar issue:
https://www.telerik.com/forums/unable-to-cast-object-of-type-asp-masterpage-master-to-type-telerik-web-ui-gridtableview
<!-- <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> -->
<xhtmlConformance mode="Transitional"/>
Changing this item in my web.config did indeed fix the issue. Now I nee to do some testing to see if other places in the web app used the Legacy mode.
As per your finding,setting the <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> is incompatible with ASP.NET AJAX controls and it should be removed. This setting could be added when upgrading an old project with Visual Studio.
You can find more information about the <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> setting in the following blog post: Don't use <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> with ASP.NET AJAX.
