Hello Kannan,

You could hide the Command Item in the PreRender event like below.

C#:

protected void grdEmail_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       if (grdEmail.EditIndexes.Count > 0)
           grdEmail.MasterTableView.CommandItemSettings.ShowAddNewRecordButton = false;
       else
           grdEmail.MasterTableView.CommandItemSettings.ShowAddNewRecordButton = true;
       grdEmail.Rebind();
   }

Regards,
Shinu.

Hi,

I used the code which you have posted. But i am getting an error that "does not contain the definition ShowAddNewRecordButton.

My dll version is 2008.1.515.35.

Please let me know whether we can do in this or not.

thanks & regards

Hello Kannan,

The property ShowAddNewRecordButton is available from the version  Q1 2010 BETA (version 2010.1.216). Since you are using the older version you can achieve the same by accessing the control and then setting the visibility to false. Here is the sample code.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
   if (RadGrid1.EditIndexes.Count > 0)
    {
       GridCommandItem cmdItem=(GridCommandItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[0];
       cmdItem.FindControl("InitInsertButton").Parent.Visible = false;
    }
   }

Thanks Shinu,

The code which u have sent is working fine.

And now i have another query in GRID

2.Is Excel export is available in the version which i am using (2008.1.515.35)

Thanks & Regards

Hi Kannan,


One method is accessing the control from code and setting the style to get teh required appearance.

cs:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
          GridEditFormInsertItem inserItem = (GridEditFormInsertItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetInsertItem();
          LinkButton lnkCancel =(LinkButton)inserItem.FindControl("CancelButton");
          lnkCancel.Attributes.Add("Style", "float: right !important;");
}

Give a try with this and see whether it helps.

And I believe the version supports exporting to excel. You can check that by using the code:
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ExportToExcel();



Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Thanks for ur code. And in the mean time i found another solution for spacing

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
           LinkButton insertButton = (LinkButton)e.Item.FindControl("PerformInsertButton");
           insertButton.Style["margin-right"] = "30px";               
         }

For Excel export is there any command item which is available in new version? Are can u give some sample codes for excel export?

Thanks & Regards

Hello Kannan ,

TThe built-in command item buttons  (like  ShowExportToExcelButton, ShowExportToPdfButton etc) are available from the  vesion 2009.3.1016.

In order to achieve the same functionality with your version, you could place Button control in CommandItemTemplate and set the CommandName as "ExportToExcel".

<CommandItemTemplate >
 <asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button"  CommandName="ExportToExcel"/>
 </CommandItemTemplate>

Thanks,
Shinu.
