Add How to add Button/LinkButton on the child table only in the "Hierarchy with templates"

[Newkid]

Hello,

Could someone show me to add a button/hyperlink on the 2nd level?  I see you have the sample in the link below, but I only need to add  a button/hyperlink on the child table.

Hello,

The following code snippet shows how to add Button in Detail table . You can try adding a Button in GridTemplateColumn or can use GridButtonColumn for this purpose.
ASPX:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
  <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataKeyNames="CustomerID" HierarchyDefaultExpanded="true">
    <DetailTables>
      <telerik:GridTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" DataKeyNames="OrderID" runat="server" Name="DetailTable1">
        <ParentTableRelation>
          <telerik:GridRelationFields DetailKeyField="CustomerID" MasterKeyField="CustomerID" />
        </ParentTableRelation>
        <Columns>
          <telerik:GridButtonColumn UniqueName="GridButtonColumn1" ButtonType="PushButton" Text="GridButtonColumn1">
          </telerik:GridButtonColumn>
          <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="Button" HeaderText="Button">
            <ItemTemplate>
              <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" />
            </ItemTemplate>
          </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        </Columns>
      </telerik:GridTableView>
    </DetailTables>
    <Columns>
      <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="CustomerID" HeaderText="CustomerID" DataField="CustomerID">
      </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
    </Columns>
  </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

Thanks,

Princy,
Thanks for your reply.  I think i wasnot clear on my question.  What i want to display a "Add New Record" button (or link) under need of my child table (see my attached file).  When i click on this button/link, i will go to another page.  
I have tried different way but i couldn't make it work.  Do you have any ideas?  Thanks so much!!!!

Hello,

You can add a FooterTemplate in the GridTemplateColumn of the DetailTables. See the following code snippet.
aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" AutoGenerateColumns="false" >
  <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataKeyNames="ProjectID" HierarchyDefaultExpanded="true">
    <DetailTables>
      <telerik:GridTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" DataKeyNames="RequestStatus" runat="server" ShowFooter="true" Name="DetailTable1">
        <ParentTableRelation>
          <telerik:GridRelationFields DetailKeyField="CustomerID" MasterKeyField="ProjectID" />
        </ParentTableRelation>
        <Columns>
          <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="RequestStatus" HeaderText="Request Status" DataField="RequestStatus" ></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
          <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="Reason" HeaderText="Reason" DataField="Reason" ></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
          <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="Other Reason" HeaderText="Other Reason" DataField="Other Reason" ></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
          <telerik:GridTemplateColumn >
            <FooterTemplate>
              <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Add New Record" />
            </FooterTemplate>
          </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        </Columns>
      </telerik:GridTableView>
    </DetailTables>
    <Columns>
      <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="ProjectID" HeaderText="Project ID" DataField="ProjectID"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
      <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="prj_status" HeaderText="prj_status" DataField="prj_status"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
      <telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="Title" HeaderText="Title" DataField="Title"></telerik:GridBoundColumn>
    </Columns>
  </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

CSS:

<style type="text/css">
  .RadGrid_Default .rgFooter td
    {
      float:left !important;
    }
</style>

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Princy.

Hello Raj,

Try the following code to assigning color for linkbutton.
C#:

void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
 if (e.Item is GridCommandItem)
 {
   GridCommandItem item = (GridCommandItem)e.Item;
   LinkButton link = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("LinkButtonId");
   link.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
 }
}

Thanks,
Princy.
