Data is not saving when i keep few fields readonly=true and display=false

[Syed]

Hi,

I am trying to insert/update the data in my RadGrid and but could not able to save. I have few fields on the grid and some of them i change the properties readonly=true and display=false. I don't want to see these fields while editing or inserting. When i save the data is not saving. But when i change readonly=false and display=true, the data is saving. I don't know what exactly went wrong.

Temporary i just disable the textboxes while editing/inserting. 

Can you tell me what is the reason behind this.

Look at the following one i am disabling the textboxes.

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemDataBound
        If (TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditFormInsertItem) AndAlso (e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted) Then
            Dim insertItem As GridEditFormInsertItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditFormInsertItem)
            Dim txtbx1 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Resource_Name").Controls(0), TextBox)
            txtbx1.Text = RadComboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString
            Dim txtbx2 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Resource_Year").Controls(0), TextBox)
            ' txtbx2.Text = Request.QueryString("Resource_Year").ToString
            txtbx2.Text = Year(Now)
            Dim txtbx3 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Resource_Month").Controls(0), TextBox)
            'txtbx3.Text = Request.QueryString("Resource_Month").ToString
            txtbx3.Text = Month(Now)
            Dim txtbx4 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Resource_week").Controls(0), TextBox)
            txtbx4.Text = Request.QueryString("ResourceVersion").ToString
            Dim txtbx5 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Division_ID").Controls(0), TextBox)
            txtbx5.Text = Request.QueryString("Division_ID").ToString
            Dim txtbx6 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("Section_ID").Controls(0), TextBox)
            txtbx6.Text = Request.QueryString("Section_ID").ToString
            txtbx6.ReadOnly = True
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns(6).Visible = False
            Dim txtbx7 As TextBox = DirectCast(insertItem("sno").Controls(0), TextBox)
            txtbx1.Enabled = False
            txtbx2.Enabled = False
            txtbx3.Enabled = False
            txtbx4.Enabled = False
            txtbx5.Enabled = False
            txtbx6.Enabled = False
            txtbx7.Enabled = False
        End If

        If TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditableItem AndAlso e.Item.IsInEditMode Then
            Dim item As GridEditableItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)
            Dim txtbx1 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Resource_Name").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx2 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Resource_Year").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx3 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Resource_Month").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx4 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Resource_week").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx5 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Division_ID").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx6 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("Section_ID").Controls(0), TextBox)
            Dim txtbx7 As TextBox = DirectCast(item("sno").Controls(0), TextBox)

            txtbx1.Enabled = False
            txtbx2.Enabled = False
            txtbx3.Enabled = False
            txtbx4.Enabled = False
            txtbx5.Enabled = False
            txtbx6.Enabled = False
            txtbx7.Enabled = False

        End If
  End Sub

Hi Syed,

I suggest that you set ForceExtractValue property to true for the columns which are with display=false and readonly=true.
