Hide Edit Link Based on Condition

[L]

hi

 

How should i hide Edit link based on Permission Type. For example, if PermissionType is User then i want to hide the Edit link in the grid. Here is my code.

 

 <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="PermissionType" FilterControlAltText="Filter PermissionType column" HeaderText="Type" SortExpression="PermissionType" UniqueName="PermissionType">
                        <ColumnValidationSettings>
                            <ModelErrorMessage Text="" />
                        </ColumnValidationSettings>
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                      <telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" CommandName="editcolumn" FilterControlAltText="Filter column column" ItemStyle-ForeColor="Blue" ItemStyle-Font-Underline="true" HeaderText="Edit" Text="Edit" 
                        UniqueName="editcolumn" >                        
                        <ItemStyle Font-Underline="True" ForeColor="Blue"></ItemStyle>
                    </telerik:GridButtonColumn>

 

Thanks a lot

Hi,

For conditionally hide the Edit LinkButton depending on the PersmissionType value you can handle the OnItemDataBound event and use the following code for hiding the button for "User" type:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
    {
        GridDataItem item = e.Item as GridDataItem;
        (item["editcolumn"].Controls[0] as LinkButton).Visible = item["PermissionType"].Text != "User";
    }
}

Hope this helps.
