Get the order of items

[James Shelton Agar]

so what i try to archive is that when user click the "view" button. it goes to another page with a navigation of "1(current)/10(total), previous, next, first, last".

the problem araises that how do i get the current index of the selected item according to the sort order? (user sorts by click the header)

any suggestion will be helpful

Hello James,

Once sorted the ItemIndex changes , so what I understand is that you would want to persist the selected rows on sorting. In that case, this link would help you achieve the result.

Thanks

it's a difficult problem to explian...

but make it simple, how do i retreive all "Primary Keys" in the sort order after grid sorting?

Hi James,

Try setting the PrimaryKey as the DataKeyName so that you can access it in the PreRender event.

ASPX:

<MasterTableView AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="ProductID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            string strKey = item.GetDataKeyValue("ProductID").ToString();
        }
    }

Shinu.
