hide command buttons/links issue

[El]

I managed it to hides Add New Record button but only the one at the top. The other one at the bottom remains visible :(

if (e.Item is GridCommandItem)
                    {
                        GridCommandItem cmdItem = (GridCommandItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[0];
                        ((LinkButton)cmdItem.FindControl("InitInsertButton")).Visible = false;
                    }

Also how do i hide the delete button? I tried the next but it didn't work properly.

if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
                    {
                        GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
                        LinkButton editButton = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("EditButton");
                        editButton.Visible = false;
                        //LinkButton deleteButton = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("DeleteButton");
                        //deleteButton.Visible = false;
                    }

the Edit button gets hidden but the delete throws an exception "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

Hello,

You can use the following code snippet in PreRender event in order to hide the "Add New Record" button in both CommandItems.

cs:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

GridCommandItem commandItem = (GridCommandItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[0];

((LinkButton)commandItem.FindControl("InitInsertButton")).Visible = false;

GridCommandItem commandItem1 = (GridCommandItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[1];

((LinkButton)commandItem1.FindControl("InitInsertButton")).Visible = false;

}

I guess you are using autogenerated Delete button, if so you can use the following code to hide that.

cs:

    protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            LinkButton editButton = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("EditButton");
            editButton.Visible = false;
            LinkButton deleteButton = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("AutoGeneratedDeleteButton");
            deleteButton.Visible = false;
        }
    }
