[Solved] Change caption in GridButtonColumn

[Erik Hansen]

Hi
I'm trying to change the caption/text on a GridButtonColumn, by code.
What i want is that the text on the PushButton is dependent on the value of a field.
The result is that I don’t see the push button, but only a text.
Can anybody tell me what I do wrong?

Thanks
Erik

aspx

<telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="PushButton" text="Create"
         UniqueName="versionFunction" HeaderText="Function">
    <HeaderStyle Width="100px"></HeaderStyle>
</telerik:GridButtonColumn>

C#

 protected void Grid_Versioner_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            switch (dataItem["Status"].Text)
            {
                case "Created":
                    dataItem["versionFunction"].Text = "Execute";
                    break;
                case "Executing":
                    dataItem["versionFunction"].Text = "Executeing";
                    break;
            }
        }
    }

Hello Eric,

Inorder to change the Button text from code, you have to access the button and change its text as shown below:
c#:

((Button)dataItem["versionFunction"].Controls[0]).Text = "Execute";
