Access Textbox in detail section ItemDataBound

[Justin McMillen]

I'm trying to use the approach mentioned in the following article to get textbox values:

http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/using-section-events.html


I'm getting the following error:

Error   1   Cannot implicitly convert type 'Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ProcessingElement' to 'Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportItemBase'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)  

What am I doing wrong?

private void detail_ItemDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Telerik.Reporting.Processing.DetailSection section = sender as Telerik.Reporting.Processing.DetailSection;
            Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportItemBase extraShipping = section.ChildElements.Find("extraShippingCostTextBox", false)[0];
        }

Hello Justin,

Thank you for reporting this issue. We have updated the help article and the update will be published with the next upload of the online help. Check out the following working code snippet:

private void detail_ItemDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

    Telerik.Reporting.Processing.DetailSection section = (sender as Telerik.Reporting.Processing.DetailSection);
    Telerik.Reporting.Processing.TextBox extraShipping = (Telerik.Reporting.Processing.TextBox)section.ChildElements.Find("extraShippingCostTextBox", false)[0];
    object val = section.DataObject["Weight"];

    if (!(val is DBNull) && (Convert.ToDecimal(val)) > 10)
    {
        extraShipping.Visible = true;
    }
    else
    {
        extraShipping.Visible = false;

    }
}

As a token of gratitude we have updated your Telerik Points.
