Databinding of properties of Dropdown items.

[JD.]

Hi,

We have a radcombobox with list of Regions that gets populated with EntityDataSource, now we added a new column in table named as "MarkAsDeleted" We want to disable Regions in radcombobox where region is "MarkAsDeleted" = true.

I found that   it has property as below,  just don;t know how to automatically allow databinding to this property.

  <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Enabled="False" Text="RadComboBoxItem3"
                            Value="RadComboBoxItem3" />

Any idea ?

Hi JD.,

You could try to use the following implementation at the ItemDataBound event handler :

protected void RadComboBox1_ItemDataBound(object sender, RadComboBoxItemEventArgs e)
    {
     var MarkAsDeleted = Convert.ToBoolean(((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["MarkAsDeleted"]);

      e.Item.Enabled = !MarkAsDeleted;
    }

Kind regards,

I was hoping if there was any declarative way of doing the same to avoid recompilation.

But this works for now.  Thanks.
