Radgrid batch editing with columngroup

[Alfonso]

Hi,

I'm using 2013.2.611.40 Telerik RadGrid.

I'm trying to use Batch editing mode with a GridTemplateColumn. If I specify ColumnGroup property, when the cell is clicked a JavaScript error is raised in _isColumnEditable (Unable to get property _data of undefined or null reference). If ColumnGroup property is removed all is working fine and edit textbox is shown.

01.<telerik:RadGrid ID="MyGrid" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false"
02.        Skin="Simple"
03.        AllowPaging="False"
04.        AllowSorting="true"
05.        AllowFilteringByColumn="true"
06.        AllowMultiRowSelection="true"
07.        OnPreRender="GridLastPhase_PreRender"
08.        OnNeedDataSource="GridLastPhase_NeedDataSource"
09.        OnItemDataBound="GridLastPhase_ItemDataBound">
10.        <ClientSettings>
11.            <Scrolling AllowScroll="true" UseStaticHeaders="true" SaveScrollPosition="true" />
12.            <Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" />
13.        </ClientSettings>
14.        <MasterTableView HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" Width="99%" EditMode="Batch">
15.            <BatchEditingSettings EditType="Cell" OpenEditingEvent="Click" />
16.            <ColumnGroups>
17.                <telerik:GridColumnGroup Name="LQP1" HeaderText="Last Q Phase 1" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" />
18.            </ColumnGroups>
19.            <Columns>
20.                <telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="" AllowFiltering="false" HeaderStyle-Width="40px" ItemStyle-Width="40px">

22.                        <asp:Label ID="lblRowNumber" runat="server"></asp:Label>
23.                    </ItemTemplate>

31.                <telerik:GridTemplateColumn AutoPostBackOnFilter="true" ShowFilterIcon="false" FilterControlWidth="100%" UniqueName="LQP1_PHASE_DESCRIPTION" HeaderText="Phase" DataType="System.String" DataField="LQP1_PHASE_DESCRIPTION" SortExpression="LQP1_PHASE_DESCRIPTION" ColumnGroupName="LQP1" HeaderStyle-Width="110px" ItemStyle-Width="110px">
32.                    <ItemTemplate>
33.                        <asp:Label ID="lblLQP1_PHASE" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("LQP1_PHASE_DESCRIPTION")%>'></asp:Label>
34.                    </ItemTemplate>
35.                    <EditItemTemplate>
36.                        <asp:TextBox ID="txtLQP1_PHASE" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("LQP1_PHASE_DESCRIPTION")%>'></asp:TextBox>
37.                    </EditItemTemplate>
38.                </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
39.            </Columns>
40.        </MasterTableView>
41.
42.    </telerik:RadGrid>

Thanks in advance.

Hello Alfonso,

In the context of Batch editing functionality of RadGrid, the version that you are using is rather old and you should know that too many fixes have been introduced to Batch editing since version 2013.2 611. As for the ColumnGroups issue, that issue was fixed in the next version 2013.2 717.

Please upgrade to a newer version of our controls, where the issue is fixed and see if everything is working correctly in your actual project.

Hope this helps.
