[Solved] Allow only Insert/Delete actions in RADGrid with EditMode="InPlace"

[Andrew]

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to allow only Insert and Delete actions in a RADGrid when using EditMode="InPlace".  I have a GridEditCommandColumn in the grid, but I really only want users to be able to Insert/Delete records in this grid, not add.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Hello Andrew,

When using Inplace editmode, you need to have the EditCommandColumn displayed in order to show the insert and cancel buttons. You can try the following code snippet in order to hide the Edit links and show Insert/Cancel buttons only.

CS:

    protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataInsertItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
        {
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("EditcolumnUniqueName").Visible = true;
            foreach (GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
            {
                ((LinkButton)dataItem["EditcolumnUniqueName"].Controls[0]).Visible = false;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("EditcolumnUniqueName").Visible = false;
        }
    }
