[Solved] Detail Table, (Late Bound) Insert Mode

[Neal]

Hi All,

The problem.
When i click on the Insert of the Detail table, it does not go into "Insert Mode", ie no New Grid Row is provided (inline mode) to capture data into.
Is there a requirement I'm missing??

Scenario:

• I am not using the <ParentTableRelation> . (I mention it because I don't know if this could cause the issue).
• The Insert/refresh are customised (link button and Image) by use of the CommandItemTemplate.
• DataBinding
• occurs in the DetailTableDataBind event.(MainGrid uses OnNeedDataSource).
• The ItemCommand determines a few Parameters which are required (just hiding or getting certain keys).
  
  In the insert command (updt+del, similarly)
  I differentiate between views/tables as per examples, eg if ("Detail1".Equals(e.Item.OwnerTableView.Name))....etc
  
  

Thanks
Neal

Hello Neal,

May I suggest you review this online demo devoted on the same matter. Note also that you need to use either declarative relations or the programmatic one.

If the problem still persists could you describe what the difference in the implementation between the demo and your scenario are?

Thanks Georgi,
I found the problem.

I was not checking for,  if the item was or was not a  InsertItem (in the Grids ItemDataBound event)

 

i.e.    ..... if (e.Item is GridDataInsertItem)

and subsequent code for 

 

e.Item

is GridDataItem && e.Item is GridEditableItem   was executed,.....end denying the put into edit/insert mode.


So,..problem solved

Hi there, I have the same scenario I guess.

I'm having the following problem.

protected void RadGridSpecializations_DetailTableDataBind(object source, GridDetailTableDataBindEventArgs e)

        {

            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.DetailTableView.ParentItem;

            ProductSpecialization ps = (ProductSpecialization)dataItem.DataItem;

           if (ps != null)

            {

                e.DetailTableView.DataSource = ps.AttributesValues;

            }

        }

executes good when the page is intialiazed or when the Parent Grid Item is edited or when the detail table item is edited, but when I click the add new record button on the detail table,  (ProductSpecialization)dataItem.DataItem; .. the DataItem is null, hence ps is also null, and ultimately, nothing happens, no "insert view"..

Im stuck on this for hours,

any thoughts?

Thanks

Fabio

Hello Fabio,

Could you try to set DataKeyName to the detail table and retrieve it in the DetailTableDataBind event handler? You can review the suggested approach in this online demo.
