Binding field to RadComboBox in FormTemplate

[Jocelyn]

Hi,

I have simple RadComBox inside my form template. I fill this ComboBox inside the RadGrid_ItemCreated.

I set a value and a text for each RadComboBoxItem. I can't find a DataField Property for ComboBox to select automatically the right item from the DataSource. Is there a way to achieve this? Or I'll need to loop inside ComboBox to select the right one?

Hi Jocelyn,

I guess you want to show the SelectedValue of ComboBox in FormTemplate.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
    {
        GridEditFormItem eitem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
        RadComboBox RadComboBox1= (RadComboBox)eitem.FindControl("RadComboBox1");
        RadComboBox1.DataSourceID = "SqlDataSource1";
        RadComboBox1.DataTextField = "OrderID";
        RadComboBox1.DataValueField = "OrderID";
        RadComboBox1.SelectedValue = (string)DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem, "OrderID").ToString();
    }
}

Please provide the code if it doesn't help.

Thanks,
Shinu.
