Determining row number when user clicks a control

[Derek]

Hi,
I've spent some time reviewing the threads and api and have not been able to figure out how to determine which row a user clicked on when they selected a control on the grid.

Because the control is within the cell, when the user selects a combobox for example, the row itself is not selected making it difficult to find out what row they are manipulating.  Ultimately, I would like to disable certain cells within the row of the combobox the user changed the value to.

Can you help?

Hi Derek,

As I understand you have define your ComboBox in GridViewColumn's CellTemplate. In this way the selection logic of RadGridView is not executed, since the combobox handles the mouse/keyboard events. Please consider to use CellEditTemplate instead. However, you can find the row by subscribing to combobox's event and execute the following code:

GridViewRow row = ((Combobox)sender).ParentOfType<GridViewRow>();
    if (row != null)
     {
    // your code
     }

I hope this helps.
