findcontrol - when edit form is a web user control

[Colan]

From the parent page code behind file, I need an object reference for the user control edit form.

Have found a couple of hints in the documentation, but doesn't seem to work - it always returns null:

 var xxx = MyGrid.FindControl(  GridEditFormItem.EditFormUserControlID);

Hello Colan,

Please post your code here so that we can examine it. In the meantime you could try the following:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item.IsInEditMode)
    {
        var userControl = e.Item.FindControl(GridEditFormItem.EditFormUserControlID);
    }
}
