        how can i get the textbox value.Since i am having that textbox in data template i cant get it.

Hi Karthi Keyan,

If you know which cell you are operating on, you can use the ChildrenOfType<T> method to find the TextBox that is inside it like this:

TextBox txt = cell.ChildrenOfType<TextBox>[0].

Please, send us a sample project if this does not help and explain the exact behavior that you would like to achieve. We will try to come up with something.

All the best,

Hi all,
I have the same requirement, just difference is I have rad combo box insteed of text box. And on button click I have the selected item value of rad combobox in a variable. How can I do that? Can anyone tell me?

Hello,

You can use exactly the same approach - just change the generic argument to desired type.

Hello,

Can you post your XAML (how the combo is declared) and the code that you have tried?

Hi,

Here I am giving the snippet what I have dont in xaml file for your understanding. If user selects sample2 item from combo box, then I have to retrieve that value and store it into sharepoint list.


<grid:RadGridView x:Name="grid" Margin="100,100,100,100" RowIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed" IsReadOnly="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" CanUserFreezeColumns="False" CanUserResizeColumns="False" Width="520" Height="270" >

 

 

    <grid:RadGridView.Columns>

 

 

        <grid:GridViewDataColumn x:Name="gaugeColumn"  Header="Header1"  HeaderTextAlignment="Center"  Width="150" DataMemberBinding="{Binding ID}" TextAlignment="Center"/>

 

 

 

 

 

<grid:GridViewDataColumn x:Name="measureColumn" HeaderText="Header2" HeaderTextAlignment="Center" Width="200">

 

 

<grid:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

 

    <DataTemplate>

 

 

        <telerikInput:RadComboBox Name="cbMeasures" SelectedIndex="0">

 

 

            <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="Sample1" />

 

 

            <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="Sample2" />

 

 

            <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="Sample3" />

 

 

            <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="Sample4" />

 

 

        </telerikInput:RadComboBox>

 

 

    </DataTemplate>

 

 

</grid:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

 

 

</grid:GridViewDataColumn>

 

 

<grid:GridViewDataColumn HeaderText="Header3" HeaderTextAlignment="Center" Width="150">

 

 

        <grid:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

 

            <DataTemplate>

 

 

                <telerikInput:RadComboBox Name="cbDisplay" SelectedIndex="0" >

 

 

                    <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="Yes" />

 

 

                    <telerikInput:RadComboBoxItem Content="No" />

 

 

                </telerikInput:RadComboBox>

 

 

        </DataTemplate>

 

 

</grid:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

 

</grid:GridViewDataColumn>

 

 

</grid:RadGridView.Columns>

 

 

 

</grid:RadGridView>

Hello,

Why not use SelectionChanged event of the combo directly?

In codebehind file:

private

void saveButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

 

{

GridViewCell

secondCell = (GridViewCell)row.Items[1];

 

RadComboBox

txt = secondCell.ChildrenOfType<RadComboBox>[0];

}

At <RadComboBox>[0], it is giving error "RadCombobox is a 'type' but is used as 'variable' ".
also what this " 0 " indicating? Can you explain for me?

Thanks,
Kaustubh
