Edit Popup Form for individual grid cells

[Fred Mare]

Hi

I need to create an attendance sheet. I would like a user to click on a cell in the grid and the an Edit Popup Form should display containing the selected cells data. The user should be able to edit the cells details using the form and save it to the database. How can I do this?

Thank You
Fred

Hi Fred,

Here is a online demo which illustrates how to switch grid cells in edit mode by simply double-clicking   them (an easy and intuitive approach), update the data on the client and then process all changes on the server with a single batch update:

Check it out and let me know if its useful for you.

Dear Pavlina

Thank you for the email.

I have managed to implement the client batch update grid example. When I edit cells and then click on the process button the values are returned to the ajax request but the grid looses the values the displayed. When I double click on the cell again the value is still there. Do I need to rebind the grid or reload it?

Thank You  

Fred

Hi,

Can you please confirm that you refresh the data in the source inside the OnAjaxRequest handler on the server as demonstrates in the example for Client Edit with Batch Server Update?

All the best,

Dear Pavlina

I am using the same code as except for the Web.UI.AjaxRequestEventArgs e that is different due to the new manager. The rebind does not execute.
Thank yo u

Fred

protected void RadAjaxManager1_AjaxRequest(object sender, Web.UI.AjaxRequestEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Argument == string.Empty)
            {
                RadGrid1.Rebind();
            }
            string[] editedItemIds = e.Argument.Split(':');
            int i;
            for (i = 0; i <= editedItemIds.Length - 2; i++)
            {
                string productId = editedItemIds[i];
                GridDataItem updatedItem = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.FindItemByKeyValue("ProductID", int.Parse(productId));

                UpdateValues(updatedItem);
            }
        }

Hello Fred,

Will it be convenient for you to open a formal support ticket and send us a sample runnable project where the problem can be replicated. We will debug it locally and advice you further.

Kind regards,
