ComboBox SelectedValue in ListView EditItemTemplate

[Caglar Duman]

Hi,

I've a ComboBox in ListView EditItemTemplate and I'm filling it programatically;

aspx file
...


<EditItemTemplate>

   <telerik:RadComboBox ID="cmb" runat="server" SelectedValue='<%#Bind("KAYITNO")%>'>

   </telerik:RadComboBox>

</EditItemTemplate>

...

cs file
...
protected void listView_ItemCreated(object sender, RadListViewItemEventArgs e)
{
     if (e.Item.ItemType == RadListViewItemType.EditItem)
     {
         RadComboBox cmb= item.FindControl("cmb") as RadComboBox;
         fillCombo(cmb);
     }
}

protected void fillCombo(RadComboBox cmb)
{
   cmb.DataSource = MngCon.Fill();
   cmb.DataTextField = "VALUE";
   cmb.DataValueField = "KAYITNO";
   cmb.DataBind();
}
...

The problem is that when I press edit button EditItemTemplate thow exception; 

Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.

What can I do for this situation ?

PS: I'm sure that Bind("KAYITNO") value is exists in comboBox items.

I've removed  "cmb.DataBind()" -> now it works great :)
but why DataBind can't be used?

Hello Caglar Duman,

This error appears if at some moment  the RadListBox is not binded and SelectedValue cannot find the argument of the Bind expression.

Could you please send us the full code so we can inspect it and help you.

Thank you!
