Grid / Hierarchy with Templates Editing Data

[Peter Maslin]

hi

i have been following the example from
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/hierarchy/nestedviewtemplate/defaultcs.aspx

and taken it to the point where on each tab in the template the user can edit/add data within it.
also another difference is the RadGrids in each tab are only simple grids , no heirachy etc,

the problem i am having is accessing field data from the top level grid , as i need it for the insert forms.

currently the only time i seem to be able to access the ControllingRows Data is on the PreRender event of the Parent Grid , at any point after that i cant seem to access the Parent Row.


i dont know its at the right point , but on the InsertCommand for the grids in the innerContainer i cant seem to find a way to access the parent row from the top level grid.

can anyone suggest the correct way so access the data.

Peter.

Hi Peter,

You can access the parent row as follows:

GridDataItem ParentItem = e.Item.OwnerTableView.ParentItem;

I hope this information helps.

Hello Pieter,

You can access the TextBox control in detail table by attaching the event ItemDataBound as shown below.
aspx:

<telerik:GridTableView Name="Detail" DataKeyNames="OrderID" CommandItemDisplay="Top">
  <Columns>
      <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text="hello"></asp:TextBox>
        </ItemTemplate>
      </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
  </Columns>
</telerik:GridTableView>

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
      if (e.Item is GridDataItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.Name == "Detail")
          {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            TextBox tab = (TextBox)item.FindControl("TextBox1");
          }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi Shinu,

Thnaks for the replay,
I am not using the GridTableView , i am using DetailsView witch is inside pageview i can't use the itemdatabound while it's only ondatabound available so i can't use GridItemEventArgs (e.Item a\is not available)
can you suggest me another way please.

is there any way i can find mastertable datakeyvalue in protected void DetailsView _ItemDatabound(object sender, EventArgs e)

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pieter,

The DetailsView control is not a part of the Telerik suite - please, consult the MSDN documentation on how to achieve your requirement.
