Chosing wich fields appear in the edit mode on run time

[Rogério]

Hello everybody,

I'm building a grid with edit and delete options.
In the edit option i need to show only some of the fields i have available in the grid for update, but i'm having problems achieving this.

I saw several examples in the forum but i can't put it to work in my project

I'm populating the grid on run time this way:

'. Preencher a Grid

rg_shoppinglist.DataSourceID = "SqlDataSource1"

SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Item("idClient").DefaultValue = "1"

rg_shoppinglist.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = New String() {"idwebchart"}

rg_shoppinglist.Width = Unit.Percentage(98)

rg_shoppinglist.PageSize = 5

rg_shoppinglist.AllowPaging = True

rg_shoppinglist.PagerStyle.Mode = GridPagerMode.NextPrevAndNumeric

rg_shoppinglist.AutoGenerateColumns = False

rg_shoppinglist.AutoGenerateEditColumn = True

rg_shoppinglist.AutoGenerateDeleteColumn = False

rg_shoppinglist.AllowSorting = True

rg_shoppinglist.Skin = "Sunset"

rg_shoppinglist.EnableViewState = True

'. Configurar

Dim boundColumn As GridBoundColumn

'. Referência

boundColumn = New GridBoundColumn()

rg_shoppinglist.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn)

boundColumn.DataField = "ref"

boundColumn.HeaderText = "Referência"

boundColumn.EditFormColumnIndex = False

Dim myEdit As Boolean = boundColumn.IsEditable

'. Designação

boundColumn = New GridBoundColumn()

rg_shoppinglist.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn)

boundColumn.DataField = "description"

boundColumn.HeaderText = "Designação"                  '. MORE FIELDS ETC ETC ETC......

After this i tryed doing somethign like this:

    Protected Sub rg_shoppinglist_ItemCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles rg_shoppinglist.ItemCommand
        Dim val As Object
        If e.CommandName = "Edit" Then
            e.Item.Edit = True
            e.Item.OwnerTableView.Rebind()


            For i As Integer = 0 To e.Item.Controls.Count - 1
                val = e.Item.Controls(i)
                val = e.Item.Controls(i).ID
                e.Item.Controls(i).......... several try outs without sucess

            Next


        End If
    End Sub

But nothing seems to work...
Please help

Got it! with help from Telerik boys
I must set the column as Readonly

	boundColumn = New GridBoundColumn()
	rg_shoppinglist.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn)
	boundColumn.DataField = "ref"
	boundColumn.HeaderText = "Referência"
	boundColumn.[ReadOnly] = True
