Cannot FindControl in ItemCommand event

[JJ]

I would like to find a user control that I am using in my RadGrid Edittemplate, but I cannot.

I am able to find it in the ItemDataBound event, but I cannot find it at ItemCommand where I need to access a control within it.

This is how I access the usercontrol in ItemDataBound event:

 

 

Protected Sub rg_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs)

 

 

 

 If TypeOf (e.Item) Is GridEditFormItem And Not rg.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted Then

 

 

 

   Dim e_item As GridEditFormItem = CType(e.Item, GridEditFormItem)

 

 

 

   Dim uc As UserControl = CType(CType(e.Item, GridEditFormItem).FindControl("EditFormControl"), UserControl)

 

 

 

End If

 

 

 

End Sub

This works but does not in ItemCommand.

Hello,

Why do you wan to access the user control on the ItemCommand event? If you want to handle Update/Delete/Insert commands, there are specific command events for these functions, respectively - UpdateCommand, DeleteCommand, InsertCommand. In these events you could get a reference to the edited item through the event arguments as shown in this help topic.

Additionally, you could check this help topic for more information on how to access user control edit form in RadGrid.
