MultiItemEdit

[Gijo]

I have a TreeList with multiitemedit enabled as below.  Only one column 'Limit' is editable. I have two buttons placed outside the TreeList, one for edit and one for update(This is a user specification that the user doesn't want to go to each row and perform edit/update).  I have two problems here.

1. I have to click the Edit button twice to bring the TreeList  to edit mode
2. In the button click of Update button(btnUpdate_Click), I am not able to get the updated value in the edit box for 'Limit' column .

Thanks in Advance!

Rebinding the TreeList to the datasource after setting Edit property of item to true did the trick. See below the changes

 

 

protected void btnEdit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

 

{

 

foreach (TreeListDataItem item in RadTreeList1.Items)

 

{

item.Edit =

true;

 

}

RadTreeList1.Rebind();

}

 

protected void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

 

{

 

Hashtable table = new Hashtable();

 

 

foreach (TreeListDataItem item in RadTreeList1.EditItems)

 

{

 

string lastName = (item.GetColumnEditor("CreditLimit") as TreeListTextBoxColumnEditor).TextBoxControl.Text;

 

item.Edit =

false;

 

}

RadTreeList1.Rebind();

 

 

}
