[Solved] Accessing rows and template column

[Bogice]

Hi Telerik,

I have a collection which binds to a grid. In the ItemDataBound event I’d like to access the obj which ties to the current row. How can I do that.

Secondly, I am using template Column, how should I access the control in that column

Thank you

// This runs for each row in your grid protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(Object sender, Telerik.WebControls.GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridDataItem) //Make sure we're dealing with a data item

{

GridDataItem dataRow = e.Item as GridDataItem;

if (dataRow["Country"].Text = "Mexico") //"Country" is the unique column name, and Text is it's value

{

dataRow.CssClass = "MyMexicoRowClass";

}                       TextBox president = (TextBox)dataRow["Presidents"].FindControl("presNameTextBox"); //This finds the controls in your template column names "Presidents"

}

}

I changed this example slightly

Thank you Steve,

the (e.Item is GridDataItem) is exactly pinpoint the problem since i have error when running. It's appear that ItemDataBound is triggered for header, pager... also. and FindControl in that moment return null.  Hope that helps others.
