[Solved] Editable grid with selectable cell

[Simon Channell]

I have a grid where one column contains a link button. Clicking on this button takes user to a new page.
The grid also has an edit column and an edit form template.
The edit does not fire when clicked.
What do I do to get the edit form to work?
This is the column definition

<MasterTableView CommandItemDisplay="Top" DataKeyNames="Unit_code" AllowMultiColumnSorting="True"
              EditMode="PopUp" InsertItemPageIndexAction="ShowItemOnCurrentPage" HierarchyDefaultExpanded="False">

              <Columns>
                  <telerik:GridEditCommandColumn HeaderText="Edit" HeaderStyle-Width="50px" ItemStyle-Width="50px"
                      HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Left" ButtonType="LinkButton" UniqueName="unit_edit">
                  </telerik:GridEditCommandColumn>
                  <telerik:GridButtonColumn UniqueName="ColumnLinkCode" DataTextField="Unit_code"
                      HeaderText="Unit code" ButtonType="LinkButton">
                  </telerik:GridButtonColumn>
                  <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText="Name" HeaderButtonType="TextButton" DataField="Unit_name"
                      UniqueName="Unit_name">
                  </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                  <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText="Description" HeaderButtonType="TextButton" DataField="unit_description"
                      UniqueName="unit_description">
                  </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                  <telerik:GridNumericColumn HeaderText="Credits" DecimalDigits="0" DataField="num_credits"
                      UniqueName="num_credits">
                  </telerik:GridNumericColumn>
              </Columns>

 
These are the client settings

<ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="false" EnableRowHoverStyle="false">
              <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True" CellSelectionMode="SingleCell" />
               <Scrolling AllowScroll="True" UseStaticHeaders="True" SaveScrollPosition="true">
              </Scrolling>
          </ClientSettings>

Hello Simon,

I was not able to reproduce the issue. I prepared a small sample based on your code and it is working properly on my side. Could you please give it a try and let me know how it differs from your real setup? Additionally could you confirm you do not receive any JavaScript error when edit button is clicked?

Greetings,

I have resolved my problem by having my edit/insert form in a separate pane from the grid.
I may try your solution if I encounter something similar again.
