[Solved] editing a row in grid view on click of a button

[Deepak Garla]

hi,
i have an edit button in a column in a grid...when edit button  is clicked i want the corresponding row in the grid to get into edit mode.

i used the data context  property of the button to get all the data values in the rows selected. then i have set selected item and current item. then i used the begin edit property.The problem  here is which ever row i click by default, the first row is entering into edit mode.

How do i solve this issue.

Hi Nedyalko Nikolov,

Thanks for your response.we have an issue,the dll's we are using belong to this version 2009.2.701.1020.where as the code u have sent uses dll's which belong to 2009.2.1002.1030 version(Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gridview). Hence
"ParentOfType<GridViewRow>().BeginEdit()" cannot be used with our dll's.
Can u suggest if there  is any other approach to do the above.

Hi Deepak Garla,

You should have ParentOfType<GridViewRow>(), but you do not have BeginEdit(). You can change this code into something like this:

GridViewRow parentRow = ParentOfType<GridViewRow>();
parentRow.Cells[1].IsCurrent = true;
this.radGridView.BeginEdit();

This will put second cell of the parent row into edit mode (first cell is the cell with the edit button).

P.S. Be aware that 2009.2.701.1020 version is built on Silverlight 2 and will not be supported anymore.

Hi Deepak Garla,

In order to achieve this you have to set ValidationMode property to Row on your RadGridView.
