disable the Add New Link

[TippCityTom]

how can you disable the Add New Link until edit is updated   I don't want user to be able to add a record if they are currently updating one at the same time   I assume this is done via RadGrid1_ItemCommand


Using:

 

<CommandItemSettings AddNewRecordText="Add new record" AddNewRecordImageUrl="Images/AddRecord.gif"

 

 

RefreshText="Refresh" RefreshImageUrl="Images/Refresh.gif" />

Hello Thomas,

I suggest you test the following approach:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
    bool editMode = e.Item.OwnerTableView.OwnerGrid.EditIndexes.Count > 0;
    bool insertMode = e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted;
    if ((e.CommandName == RadGrid.InitInsertCommandName ||
        e.CommandName == RadGrid.EditCommandName ||
        e.CommandName == RadGrid.EditAllCommandName ||
        e.CommandName == RadGrid.EditSelectedCommandName)
        && (insertMode || editMode))
        e.Canceled = true;
}

Let me know whether this helps.

thanks for the fast response, that particular answer I could not get to work for me and I assume it is because I set AllowAutomatic Inserts/Updates =  false

do you have one for scenario where they are done manually, sorry should have clarified that initially?

in my case IsInEditMode is always false

Hi Thomas,

Can you try with the following approach and see if it is helpful.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

{

// this will fire when the edit button is clicked and disable the AddNewRecord button when the Grid is in edit mode

if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem)&&(e.Item.IsInEditMode))

{

foreach (GridCommandItem cmdItm in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem))

{

LinkButton Addbtn = (LinkButton)cmdItm.FindControl("InitInsertButton");

Addbtn.Enabled = false;

Button btn = (Button)cmdItm.FindControl("AddNewRecordButton");

btn.Enabled = false;

}

}

}

Thanks
Shinu.
