batchedit: how to control what can be edited

[Raddy Rad]

My grid is set up to batchedit mode with click-to-edit.

I've found a partial solution - use gridboundcolumn and gridcolumntemplate to control whether or not a column is batch editable. 

But can it be done programatically? preferrably on the server side during the databound event because i have to look at a value in the datarow.

Thanks

to get a little further, i found the batcheditopening which i can cancel. But similar to rowclick client event handler, can i get access to the datakeynames? to determine if it should be cancelled?

well with the table view, i can get to the griditems and eventually the datakeys. Now... how do i know which row the cell is clicked? so i can get the right griditem?

ah found it finally. To whomever this might be useful. apparently clicking on the cell to open up the editor, is in effect selecting a row. ie. you SHOULD be able to get selected item from table view. HOWEVER, you have to set the rowselect to true. otherwise, you won't get any selected item.
