[Solved] Best way to validate Grid values in edit and insert mode

[Clive Hoggar]

Hi

I am using RadGrid (Ajax) Q1 2009 , and want to use the automatic Edit and Insert mode as far as possible to avoid
having to add FormView or Details view, making the most of the RadGrid's smart features.  (Productivity)

What is the most efficient way to ensure that required fields are not empty in this scenario?

I have set ValidationSettings to EnableValidation but I guess this only checks that the data type matches the
database column type.

Thanks

Clive

Hi Clive,


Since you are using automatic edit  I  would suggest adding validators via Item Created event to ensure that required fields are not empty.Here  is a help documnet that will help you achieve the same.
