GridBoundColumn Assign links to data items

[Mahesh Babu]

Hi,

I want to display GridBoundColumns as links for my radgrid. I want to perform this operation at runtime. Is there any way to do this?

Regards,
Mahesh

Hello Mahesh,

You can clear off all the existing controls from the bound columns in your grid and then add link buttons to the columns' control collection as shown below:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       foreach(GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.Items)
        {
           foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
            {
               if (col.ColumnType == "GridBoundColumn")
                {
                    string celltxt = dataItem[col.UniqueName].Text;
                    LinkButton link = new LinkButton();
                    link.Text = celltxt;
                    dataItem[col.UniqueName].Controls.Clear();
                    dataItem[col.UniqueName].Controls.Add(link);
                }
            }
        }
   }

Thanks
Princy.

Hello Princy,

I thought this example would accomplish what I need... to replace an Edit button with a Linkbutton containing the item number. However, clicking the Linkbutton doesn't have the same effect... the form does not go into Edit mode (indicated by the CommandName).

Here's the code I tried:

 

 

    Protected Sub RadGrid1_PreRender _
    (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.PreRender
        For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RadGrid1.Items
            For Each col As GridColumn In RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns
                If col.ColumnType = "GridBoundColumn" And col.UniqueName = "PartNumber" Then
                    Dim celltxt As String = dataItem(col.UniqueName).Text
                    Dim link As New LinkButton()
                    link.Text = celltxt
                    link.CommandName = "Edit"
                    link.CausesValidation = False
                    dataItem(col.UniqueName).Controls.Clear()
                    dataItem(col.UniqueName).Controls.Add(link)
                End If
            Next
        Next
    End Sub

 

Thanks for any ideas.

Ken
