GrideditableItem not picking up new values

[Michael]

On the update event, i am trying to populate myu object with the new values entered:

GridEditableItem UpdateItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;

I then do the following to try and get the new value (this works on other pages) from the input control, in this case in column "SDTest"

fmsdupdate.SD = Convert.ToDecimal((UpdateItem["SDtest"].Controls[0] as TextBox).Text.Trim());

This only returns me the original value in the field, not the updated one that i have just input. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Michael,

The new values which the user entered before triggering the Update command can be fetched calling the ExtractValuesFromItem method. Please refer to the help article below for additional information.

When i use the ExtractValuesFromItem method it only brings me back the original values. I want to be able to pick up the new values that have been input but the only values i ever get back are the original values.

Pavlina, thank you. I can get that solution working, but when i try and copy the functionality both the newValues and editedItem objects contain the same info i.e. none of the updated info appears. My columns have been built from the code behind as this what i prefer, this is my table declaration in the front end, if there is anything untoward in here could you please let me know?

<telerik:RadGrid ID="grdFixedMeanAndSd" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
                    AllowPaging="True" GridLines="None" OnNeedDataSource="grdFixedMeanAndSd_NeedDataSource"
                    PageSize="5" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Skin="247"
                     CellSpacing="0" onitemcommand="grdFixedMeanAndSd_ItemCommand"
                    onitemdatabound="grdFixedMeanAndSd_ItemDataBound">


                    <MasterTableView EditMode="InPlace" DataKeyNames="LotDetail.LotNumber">
                        <CommandItemSettings ExportToPdfText="Export to Pdf"></CommandItemSettings>
 <EditFormSettings>
                            <EditColumn UniqueName="EditCommandColumn1" FilterControlAltText="Filter EditCommandColumn1 column">
                            </EditColumn>
                        </EditFormSettings>
                    </MasterTableView>
                     <FilterMenu EnableImageSprites="False">
                    </FilterMenu>
                    <HeaderContextMenu CssClass="GridContextMenu GridContextMenu_Hay">
                    </HeaderContextMenu>

                </telerik:RadGrid>

This is very frustrating as it is working on other pages in my solution, but for some reason this one does not.
