Hi,

In my RadGrid i use EditMode in EditForm style. RadGrid has the option to upload documents. I don't use UserControl instead use as follows...

    
            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderButtonType="TextButton" UniqueName="Upload" HeaderText="File Name"> 
        
                                                    <ItemTemplate> 
        
                                                        <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblFileName" Text='<%# Eval("FileName") %>' /> 
        
                                                    </ItemTemplate> 
        
                                                    <EditItemTemplate> 
        
                                                        <span style="color: #FF0000;">*</span> 
        
                                                        <asp:FileUpload Width="400" ID="RadUpload1" runat="server" /> 
        
                                                        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator Visible='<%# (Container is GridEditFormInsertItem) %>' 
        
                                                            runat="server" ControlToValidate="RadUpload1" ErrorMessage="Please select any file" 
        
                                                            ID="ReqUpload" SetFocusOnError="true" ToolTip="Please upload a file"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> 
        
                                                    </EditItemTemplate> 
        
                                                    <ItemStyle Width="10%" HorizontalAlign="right" /> 
        
                                                    <HeaderStyle Width="20%" HorizontalAlign="center" /> 
        
                                                </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

In here on Click of EDIT all the custom controls shows up inedit mode but unable to retrieve the FileUpload control alone like
FileUpload FUDoc = (FileUpload)e.Items.FindControl("RadUpload1") always this code return null.

Hi,

Try the following code snippet to access the FileUpload control.

CS:

    
            protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e) 
        
            { 
        
                if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode) 
        
                { 
        
                    FileUpload FUDoc = (FileUpload)e.Item.FindControl("RadUpload1"); 
        
                } 
        
            }

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi,

In another scenarion i use UserControl to upload documents. In here there is a complete postback held. Here i can get the value inside the FileUpload Control on Update mode of operation. Is there any idea to avoid that complete post back and accomplish the same requirement.

Now i'm trying with modal pop up i.e., with help of AjaxControlToolKit-ModalPopUpExtender in that modal popup i 'v telerik:RadComboBox the dropdown list goes underneath the modalpopup. i set the ZIndex ="1000" but no use. Is there any way to overcome this issue or its a bad idea to use modal popup on click of Add New Document of an RadGrid. Please suggest me whether to use modalpopup or UserControl for upload document.
