Grid Edit External Form - Cancel In Grid

[Michael]

I'm using an external form to edit grid rows. I have a CommandColumn that contains 3 buttons with the EditCommand, RemoveCommand, and CancelCommand directives.

I have the edit and remove commands working, and the data is being bound to the external form. I can also save the form just fine.

 

However, I have a requirement for the cancel to exist on the grid row, not on the form. I'd like the grid row to toggle to an edit mode, but have the editing done in my form, thus allowing me to cancel from the grid.

 

Is this even possible? I couldn't figure out any way to do it on my own.

I resolved this myself. The piece I was missing was

sender.editRow(rowIndex);
