Disable Edit button based on a specific value in the row

[saravanan k]

Hi,

I would like to implement the following:

Disable the edit button for a particular row, based on a specific value in its column.

For ex. If a grid has 3 columns A,B,C and if B contains "Apple", the edit button for that row must be disabled.

Thanks
Sarvanan

Hello Saravanan,

You can disable the edit button for a particular row based on condition, by using following code.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem )
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            if (item["columnB"].Text == "apple")
            {
                // Use this code if using ButtonColumn with ColumnUniqueName  'EditColumn'
                LinkButton btn = (LinkButton)item["EditColumn"].Controls[0];
                btn.Enabled = false;

                //  Use the following code if you are using autogeneratedEditColumn
                LinkButton btn2 = (LinkButton)item["AutoGeneratedEditColumn"].Controls[0];
                btn2.Enabled = false;
            }
        }
    }

Regards,
Shinu.
