Disabling a command button in a gridview

[Matt]

I have a grid with a column of GridViewCommandColumn and I wish to programmatically disable certain buttons.

I'm after something akin to;

foreach (Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowInfo gridItem in HeaderGridview.Rows)
{
    if (gridItem.Cells["Send"].Value.ToString() == "TO BE SENT")
        gridItem.Cells["Resend"].Enabled = false;
 }

I've googled it to death and can't find any samples anywhere.

Anyone got an ideas?

Hello Matt, 

You can disable a button (or indeed the cell) using the CellFormatting event. Please consider the following sample that disables the cell if the Id of the record is 1. 

    public partial class Form1 : RadForm

    {

        List<Item> _items = new List<Item>();

 

        public Form1()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

 

            _items.Add(new Item(1, "Item1"));

            _items.Add(new Item(2, "Item2"));

            _items.Add(new Item(3, "Item3"));

            _items.Add(new Item(4, "Item4"));

            _items.Add(new Item(5, "Item5"));

            _items.Add(new Item(6, "Item6"));

            _items.Add(new Item(7, "Item7"));

 

            this.radGridView1.DataSource = _items;

            this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(new GridViewCommandColumn("My Command"));

            this.radGridView1.CellFormatting += new CellFormattingEventHandler(radGridView1_CellFormatting);

        }

 

        void radGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)

        {

            e.CellElement.Enabled = true;

            if (e.RowIndex > -1 && e.Column.Name == "My Command")

            {

                if (Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells["Id"].Value) == 1)

                {

                    e.CellElement.Enabled = false;

                }

                else

                {

                    e.CellElement.Enabled = true;

                }

            }

        }

 

    }

 

 

    public class Item

    {

        public Item()

        { }

 

        public Item(int id, string name)

        {

            Id = id;

            Name = name;

        }

 

        public int Id

        { get; set; }

 

        public string Name

        { get; set; }

    }
