EditFormSettings template how to

[Warren]

I'm using the edit form template to accomplish what I need to do but I'm running into 1 snag.

Here is my relevant code:

<EditFormSettings EditFormType="Template">
                    <FormTemplate>
                   <div style="padding:25px; height:70px;">
                        <div style="width:100%; float:left; margin:0 auto; text-align:center; display:inline; ">
                            <asp:Label ID="lblBw" runat="server" Text="B/W Volume: "  />
                            <telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="rtxtBwVolume" runat="server" CssClass="AlignRight"
                                Culture="English (United States)" InvalidStyleDuration="100" MaxValue="100000"
                                MinValue="0" ShowSpinButtons="True" Value="1000" Width="75px" >
                                <IncrementSettings Step="1000" />
                                <NumberFormat AllowRounding="True" DecimalDigits="0"></NumberFormat>
                            </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>
                                <asp:Label ID="lblColor" runat="server" Text="Color Volume: " />
                                <telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="rtxtColorVolume" runat="server" CssClass="AlignRight"
                                Culture="English (United States)" InvalidStyleDuration="100" MaxValue="100000"
                                MinValue="0" ShowSpinButtons="True" Value="1000" Width="75px" >
                                <IncrementSettings Step="1000" />
                                <NumberFormat AllowRounding="True" DecimalDigits="0"></NumberFormat>
                            </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>
                            <asp:label ID="lblUnits" runat="server" Text="Units: " Visible="false"/>
                            <asp:RadioButtonList ID="rblUnits" runat="server" RepeatLayout="flow"
                                RepeatDirection="horizontal" EnableTheming="false"  Visible="false" >
                                <asp:ListItem Value="3" Text="Feet" />
                                <asp:ListItem Value="4" Text="Meters" />
                            </asp:RadioButtonList>

                            <asp:CheckBox ID="chkNewCustomer" runat="server" Text="New Customer" />
                        </div>
                        <div style="width:100%; float:left; margin:0 auto; text-align:center; ">

                    </asp:Panel>
                    </FormTemplate>
            </EditFormSettings>

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemCreated

    If (TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditableItem) AndAlso (e.Item.IsInEditMode) Then
      Dim editItem As GridEditableItem = TryCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)
      Dim txtbx As RadNumericTextBox = DirectCast(editItem.FindControl("rtxtBwVolume"), RadNumericTextBox)

      Dim ent As MaPlansEquipmentEntity = MAM.GetMaEquipmentWithRates(editItem.GetDataKeyValue("MaPlansEquipmentId"))

             chkWarranty.Checked, chkFiery.Checked, chkNewCust.Checked, Profile.UserId)

        e.Item.Edit = False
        Me.RadGrid1.Rebind()
      Catch ex As Exception
'Error code here
      End Try

    End If
  End Sub

My problem is when I click the btnUpdate button the Item_Created Sub is run first resetting any values that where changed.  I've tried initiating my template forms in the edit_command sub but they don't exist yet.  Is it possible to do what I want?

Hi Warren,

One possible option in this case would be to move the logic from the ItemCreated to the ItemDataBound event handler. The values will be properly preset there.
