[Solved] Access Controls in Insert Form

[jfkrueger]

Hi there,

I have a need to access a ComboBox that is inside the Edit/Insert form from the AjaxRequest method of the RadAjaxManager. I have no problem accessing the combobox if a record is being edited using the following code:

Protected Sub RadAjaxManager1_AjaxRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.AjaxRequestEventArgs) Handles RadAjaxManager1.AjaxRequest

        Dim RadComboBoxName As RadComboBox = Nothing

        For Each myItem As GridDataItem In RadGridPpoCodes.EditItems

            RadComboBoxName = TryCast(myItem.EditFormItem.FindControl("RadComboBoxName"), RadComboBox)

            If Not RadComboBoxName IS Nothing Then

                RadComboBoxName.DataBind()

            End If

        Next

End Sub

However I can't seem to figure out how to access the combobox if a record is being Inserted.

Any help?

Thanks!

Hello Joe,

Try the following code snippet for accessing RadCombobBox if the row in insert mode.

ASPX of RadAjaxManager:

<telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server" OnAjaxRequest="RadAjaxManager1_AjaxRequest">
    <AjaxSettings>
        <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="RadAjaxManager1">
            <UpdatedControls>
                <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="RadGrid1" />
            </UpdatedControls>
        </telerik:AjaxSetting>
    </AjaxSettings>
</telerik:RadAjaxManager>

VB:

Protected Sub RadAjaxManager1_AjaxRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AjaxRequestEventArgs)
    Dim RadComboBoxName As RadComboBox = Nothing
    If RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted Then
        Dim myItem As GridDataItem = DirectCast(RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetInsertItem(), GridDataItem)
        If True Then
            RadComboBoxName = TryCast(myItem.FindControl("RadComboBox1"), RadComboBox)
            If (RadComboBoxName IsNot Nothing) Then
                'RadComboBoxItem item = new RadComboBoxItem("New Item");
                'RadComboBoxName.Items.Add(item);
                RadComboBoxName.DataBind()
            End If
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Thanks,
Princy.
