Compare Grids

[Naresh]

How to compare changes for intially loaded radgrid to the same radgrid on submit? Is there any way to compare in telerik or store in list and compare?

Hi Naresh,

There is no direct approach to compare the data in RadGrid before and after submit. One suggestion is to save the DataSource (DataTable) in session variable while the RadGrid loads for the first time and compare with the data in RadGrid after submit button click. Here is the code snippet I tried to get the data in RadGrid in a DataTable on a Button Click event.

C#:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DataTable dtRecords = new DataTable();
    foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.Columns)
    {
        DataColumn colString = new DataColumn(col.UniqueName);
        dtRecords.Columns.Add(colString);

    }
    foreach (GridDataItem row in RadGrid1.Items) // loops through each rows in RadGrid
    {
        DataRow dr = dtRecords.NewRow();
        foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.Columns) //loops through each column in RadGrid
            dr[col.UniqueName] = row[col.UniqueName].Text;
        dtRecords.Rows.Add(dr);
    }
}

Let me know if you have any concern.

Thanks,
Princy.
