[Neelima]

Hi

Thanks!!

Protected Sub btnOK_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnOK.Click

 Dim phone As String = String.Empty
 Dim row As GridEditableItem ' How to get the row that is in editmode?
 phone = DirectCast(row.FindControl("txtPhone"), TextBox).Text

End Sub

     <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadgridDestination" runat="server"

Hello Neelima,

You can try the following code snippet to access the edit row from an external button click.

 protected void btnOK_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
GridEditableItem item = (GridEditableItem)RadgridDestination.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.EditItem)[0];
    }


Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Actually I have this button 'btnOK' in a ModalPopup window. When  the update button on the RadGrid is clicked, this ModalPopup window popsup. 
In the  btnOK click event I'm not able to capture the editedRow as the RadGrid is already back to its normal mode (from editmode).
I'm using Advanced DataBinding (NeedDataSource method).

Is there a way to keep the row in Editmode until btnOK is clicked.

Thanks
Neelima

Hello Neelima,

You can achieve this by not closing the edit form after updation. Then inside the Click event of 'btnOK', close the edit form. Check out the sample code below.

C#:

int rowindex = -1;
protected void RadGrid1_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
    GridEditableItem editItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
    rowindex = editItem.ItemIndex;
}
protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (rowindex >= 0)
    {
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items[rowindex].Edit = true;
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Rebind();
    }
}
protected void btnOK_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ClearEditItems(); //closing edit form
    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Rebind();
    rowindex = -1;
}

Thanks,
Princy.
