[Solved] Get updated value of Radgrid autogenerated column

[blue123]

I have a radgrid with autogeneratedcolumns="true". I have an edit column and a delete column to update and delete values from the grid. The problem is that I want to do it on server side like first read the updated values and then store them in the database. How can I achieve that? The columns are autogenerated so I am not able to read radgrid in RadGrid1_UpdateCommand.

anybody?

Hello,

You can access the AutoGeneratedColumn fields using their UniqueNames which is the same as their datafield names in the database. Here's an example:
c#:

 protected void RadGrid1_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
       if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem edititem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            string strtxt1 = (TextBox)edititem["DataField1Name"].Controls[0]).Text;
            string strtxt2 = (TextBox)edititem["DataField2Name"].Controls[0]).Text;
            //update query
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Thanks Princy but the problem is that my radgrid will be showing different datatables. I am using a stored procedure to bring different datatables on radgrid.

Please try using the ExtractValuesFromItem method as shown in the first example of this help topic to achieve the desired by you functionality.
