edit link does not work in the client-side binding

[Lynn]

Hi,

I have a question: the Radgrid is bound to wcf data service in the client-side. The data is displayed correctly. But when hit the Edit link, there is no response. I have set the EditMode to InPlace. My aspx code is as following:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" Width="700px" AllowSorting="true"   AllowPaging="true"
                 pagesize= "10"  AutoGenerateColumns="false"  OnItemCreated="g_ItemCreated"> 
    <MasterTableView   AllowNaturalSort="true" DataKeyNames="parm_id" AllowAutomaticUpdates="false" EditMode="InPlace" >
        <Columns>
             <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="id" UniqueName="ID" HeaderText="ID"
                ItemStyle-Width="200px" AllowSorting="true" ShowSortIcon="true" SortExpression="ID asc" ReadOnly="true" Display = "false"/>
            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="name" UniqueName="Name" HeaderText="Name"
                ItemStyle-Width="200px" AllowSorting="true" ShowSortIcon="true" SortExpression="Name asc" ReadOnly="true"  />
             <telerik:GridNumericColumn 
                                    DataField="Score" 
                                    DataType="System.Int32" 
                                    HeaderText="Score"                                         
                                    UniqueName="Score"
                                   >                                 
             </telerik:GridNumericColumn> 
            <telerik:GridCheckBoxColumn UniqueName="ActiveFlag" HeaderText="Is Active" DataField = "active_flag" />
            <telerik:GridEditCommandColumn UniqueName="EditCommandColumn" HeaderText="">
            </telerik:GridEditCommandColumn>
        </Columns>
    </MasterTableView>
  <ClientSettings >
        <ClientEvents OnDataBinding="OnDataBinding" OnRowDataBound="OnRowDataBound"   />
        <DataBinding Location="WcfDataService1.svc"  >
        <DataService TableName="Student"  />
        </DataBinding>
 </ClientSettings>
 
</telerik:RadGrid>


Someone could help me? Thanks in advance.

Hello Lynn,

When the grid is bound on the client, no subsequent trips are made to the server and the default editors cannot be rendered, and shown, which is the standard behavior, when the grid is bound on the server. The most straightforward option to work-around this is to use an external edit form, which is demonstrated in the following example.
Please examine this topic for additional information.

I hope this helps.

All the best,

Thanks, Mira.
