How to open edit form WebUserControl using link button outside the grid

[ELBU]

Hello,

I'll appreciate you help, since I'm trying to perform this action for a couple of hours without success.

I have a button , let's call it "ADD NEW ROW IN GRID"
Additionally , I have 3 link buttons placed on top of grid : add new record  , update record,  delete record

for some reason I need my WebUserControl form to be opened not from the link of the grid itself, but using
the button  "ADD NEW ROW IN GRID"

I tried to make ON CLICK event and from it I call another event  

 

protected void btnAddNewRow_OnClick(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)

 

{

 

       if (Page.IsValid)

 

 

            this.btnAdd_OnClick(sender, e);

 

}
I get an error in this case.....
What am I missing ?

When I press the link on the grid itself , it works just fine , so what is the difference ?

Hello ELBU,

From what I understand, i suppose you want to open an insert form in the grid on clicking a button outside the grid. If this is the case then try out the following to achieve the same :
aspx:

<asp:Button ID="btnAddNewRow" runat="server" Text="AddNewRowButton" OnClick="btnAddNewRow_Click" />

cs:

 protected void btnAddNewRow_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted = true;
        RadGrid1.Rebind();
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Thanks a lot !!!

The code is helpful for me as well. But how can we edit the particular row in the same way. What I want is: user will select the row and click the button outside the gridview to edit that row.

Thanks in advance

Hi Bibek,

Try out the following code snippet to achieve the desired scenario.

CS:

  protected void LinkButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)
        {
            item.Edit = true;
        }
        RadGrid1.Rebind();
    }

Thanks
Shinu.
