Accessing GridFormItem from the GridCommandItem Refresh Button

[IQworks]

  When I have an inplace form displayed to enter new data. I have two dropdownlists in the form. I also have griditem rows displayed beneath the form. 
  Currently, when I hit refresh, I set the CurrentPageIndex=0 and the first griditem record displays. But the dropdownlists lose there text's and value's and are initialized to the "Select" text.
   1) Is there a flag (or property) I can check that will let me know that the Form is currently being displayed so I can know not to rebind the grid when I hit refresh. 
   2) In my itembound, the refresh comes in as a GridCommandItem, and I cannot seem  to access the GridEditFormItem dropdownlists to refresh them with the text's and value's I need.
     I have tried various cast's but no go. I am trying to figure out how to traverse the MasterTableView to access the Form Template items. is there a more straight forward approach ? Or a combination of cast's and FindControl's that I should be looking at ?
  How can I access the form items when the current cycle is for command items ?
  thanks for any help

Sorry, not an inplace form, but an editform (as opposed from a pop-up).  Also, I know I can create a session variable as a flag, I was just wondering if there was something already in place that I coufld check to see that the form is already visible when the user presses Refresh. 
thanks again for your time.

Hi,

You need to traverse through the GridEditFormItem collection of  the grid to access the controls in the form in The Item command event.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {

        if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.RebindGridCommandName)
        {
            foreach (GridEditFormItem editedItem in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.EditFormItem))
            {
                TextBox txtContactName = (TextBox)editedItem["ContactName"].Controls[0];
            }
        }
    }

Thanks,
Princy
