[Solved] button to change a value in a row

[kyle]

I am looking to see if this is even possible.  I would like to have a button in a row of the grid (normal mode (not edit mode) that a user can click to change a value up or down for that row.  I figure I can use the itemdatabound event to wire of the event etc. But I am unsure of how i can get access to the row I am on to change the needed value?  If even possible.

Hello kyle,

Please use ItemCreated to attach the event instead of ItemDataBound. You can use also event bubbling to achieve the same ( you will need to specify CommandName for this button).  Here is an example for ItemCommand:

<Columns>
  <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
     <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" CommandName="MyCommand" runat="server" Text="MyCommand" />
     </ItemTemplate>
  </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
  <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
     <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1"runat="server" />
     </ItemTemplate>
  </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
...

if(e.CommnadName == "MyCommand")
{
    DropDownList DropDownList1 = (DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("DropDownList1");
}
