Dsiable Radgrid when Insert template open

[RB]

Can I disable a radgrid when the 'Add new record' template form is open? The user can only view the records. He cant delete or select rows.
This template also has a cancel button, on click of which I want to close the template. How can I achieve this?

Hi,

When you disable a RadGrid its entire functionality will be disabled, so what you can do is, cancel the functionalities which you don't want when the Grid is in Insert mode and set them back when the Grid returns to its normal mode as shown below:

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
   //Access the Insert Form
    if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && !e.Item.IsInEditMode && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
    {
        GridEditableItem insertItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
        //Access the delete button column
        LinkButton lnkDelete = (LinkButton)insertItem["DeleteButton"].Controls[0];
        lnkDelete.Visible = false;
        //set all properties to false
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = false;
    }
    else
    {
        //Reset the properties
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = true;
    }
}

Thanks,
