Different Values in GridDropDownColumn at insert/Edit

[Rootvik Pancholi]

hi,

How can i check that GridEditCommandColumn button is clicked or Add new Record button is clicked?
I want to bind different datasource in GridDropDownColumn when Add new record button is clicked and different when GridEditCommandColumn is clicked.

Thanks,
Rootvik.

Hi Rootvik,

You can access the dropdown control in ItemDataBound event and set the DataSource according to insert/edit mode.

The documentation shows how to distinguish edit/insert mode in ItemDataBound event.
Distinguish edit/insert mode on ItemCreated/ItemDataBound

And here is another documentation which describes on how to customize the GridDropDownColumn.
