Combobox with nested treeview in a radgrid???

[KevinMc]

Anyway to get this working? The example for nesting a treeview in a combobox won't work because the javascript acts on the clientid of the combobox which would have as many different clientids as there are rows in the radgrid. i am trying to create a bulk insert tool using radgrid. Any suggestions for a better way would be aprreciated as well.

Hi KevinMc,

Actually, this is an interesting case.

Please consider the following:

• Upon binding of the Grid rows, find both RadComboBox and the RadTreeView in each bound row.
• Set the ClientID of the ComboBox as a Custom Attribute of the TreeView.
• Later at the client, in the nodeClicking function get this attribute by name and find the ComboBox using the attribute as ID.

In this way you will successfully get each TreeView's respective ComboBox upon Node clicking.

What do you think?

Sounds good. Can you perhaps create an example? I am having trouble with step 1 getting a reference to the treeview in the combobox using findcontrol.

 RadComboBox comboParent = FormView1.FindControl("comboParent");
 RadTreeView treeParentProducts = (RadTreeView)comboParent.Items[0].FindControl("treeParentProducts");
 comboProducts.Attributes.Add("TreeView-ClientID", treeParentProducts.ClientID);

Hi KevinMc,

Here is a sample page illustrating the approach.

I hope it helps.
