Hi,
I have a radnumeric input control inside a formview. I want to bind into it, using #Bind syntax, and also to dynamically set the max value using inline code.
This is the radnumericInput:
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="txtUsedChannels" runat="server" Value='<%# Bind("txtUsedChannels") %>' ShowSpinButtons="true" MinValue="0" MaxValue="5" > 
            </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>  


which returns:
"Specified cast is not valid." this is what happends when i try to set the value. The binded value (i check in the debugger) is 0.

When I add an inline code:
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="txtUsedChannels" runat="server" Value='12' ShowSpinButtons="true" MinValue="0" MaxValue="<%= SomeFunction(someCodeBehindArg) %>" > 
            </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>  

I get:
Cannot create an object of type 'System.Double' from its string representation '<%= Convert.ToDouble(RecordingConfigurationManager.sysConfig.GetLicensedChannels(configuration.getCaptureType())) %>' for the 'MaxValue' property.

Can you guide me how to use the control dynamically?

thanks,

Hello Hadar,

1. I recommend you use DbValue instead of Value:
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox  
    ID="txtUsedChannels"  
    runat="server"  
    DbValue='<%# Bind("txtUsedChannels") %>'  
    ShowSpinButtons="true"  
    MinValue="0"  
    MaxValue="5">              
</telerik:RadNumericTextBox>   

2. Test the following approach:
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox  
    ID="txtUsedChannels"  
    runat="server"  
    DbValue='<%# Bind("Value") %>' 
    ShowSpinButtons="true"  
    MinValue="0"  
    MaxValue='<%# Convert.ToDouble(Eval("yourValue")) %>'
</telerik:RadNumericTextBox>

thanks Daniel, the DbValue is working, but the MaxValue is not working yet:
            <telerik:RadNumericTextBox    
    ID="txtUsedChannels"    
    runat="server"    
    DbValue='<%# Bind("txtUsedChannels") %>'   
    ShowSpinButtons="true"    
    MinValue="0"    
    MaxValue='<%# Convert.ToDouble(GetLicsensedChannels()) %>'>  
I get: The name 'GetLicsensedChannels' does not exist in the current context (its a code behind function).
if i change the # to =, I get the previous error bout convert from double.

Hello Hadar,

I used Google to search about this error:
The name xxx Does Not Exist in the Current Context
the name 'functionname' does not exist in the current context

Please test the aforementioned suggestions and let us know if the error still persists.
