[Solved] Binding Grid editing template

[Pål]

Hi,

I have a view strongly typed to a viewmodel object. The viewmodel contains an object of type Loan which has a list of LoanEvent objects. In the view I have a grid that is populated with the LoanEvent list. When inserting a LoanEvent I need one of the fields to be set to the name of the currently logged on user. Not username but FullName which is a property on a object called Officer in my model. There is a mapping between logged on user and the Officer user object.

I was thinking that an editor template could be used.

My View

<%: Html.Telerik().Grid(Model.Loan.LoanEvents)
    .Name("LoanEvents") 

    .DataKeys(keys => keys.Add(le => le.ID))
    .ToolBar(commands => commands.Insert())
    .DataBinding(databinding => databinding.Server() 

            .Select("Details", "Loan", new {id = Model.Loan.ID})
            .Insert("Create", "LoanEvent", new { id = Model.Loan.ID })
            .Update("Save", "LoanEvent")
            .Delete("Delete", "LoanEvent"))
    .Columns(columns => { 

            columns.Bound(p => p.Created).Width(115).Format("{0:d}"); 

            columns.Bound(p => p.Action).Width(130).Title("Type"); 

            columns.Bound(p => p.Comment).Width(150).Title("Kommentar"); 

            columns.Bound(p => p.Officer).Width(130).Title("Rådgiver"); 

            columns.Command(commands => { 
                                commands.Edit(); 

                                commands.Delete();
                                }).Width(180).Title("");
            })
    .Editable(editing => editing.Mode(GridEditMode.InLine))
    .Pageable(paging =>  paging.PageSize(10))
    .Sortable()
    .Filterable()
%>

How can I create an editor template where p.Officer can point to the FullName of the Officer object. When saving the new LoanEvent I need to store it as the foreignkey of the user object.

Any help would be appreciated.
