[Solved] Easily getting a cell from a selected row

[M Fries]

We have a simple radGrid setup with needDatasource against an arraylist for a demo.

This should be super easy, but on a selectedIndexChange event we want a one line statement to grad the cell data.

We can only find this: 

foreach (GridDataItem dataitem in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)

{

string strTxt = dataitem["Category"].Text;

}

Is there not something like   RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0].dataitem["Category"].Text?   Do we really have to use the foreach loop?

Hello,

Please test the following code-snippets:

Hashtable values = new Hashtable();
(RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0] as GridDataItem).ExtractValues(values);
string test = values["CategoryName"].ToString();

or

string test2 = (RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0] as GridDataItem)["CategoryName"].Text;

to get DataKeys

string test32 = (RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0] as GridDataItem).GetDataKeyValue("CategoryID").ToString();

Let us know if you need more information.

Kind regards,
