[Solved] GridEditCommandColumn and EditText

[Daniel]

Hi All. Is it possible to change the EditText on a GridEditCommandColumn to a different value for each row? For example, I'd like to enter edit mode by click on a persons name. I'm doing all this in the code behind (C#). I can set the 'text' property but then I loose the link button. Thanks.

Hello Daniel,

Tryout the following code snippet in order to change the Edit text from code behind.

CS:

    protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            LinkButton lnkButton = (LinkButton)item["EditColumn"].Controls[0]; //EditColumn is columnuniquename of EditCommandColumn
            // Set the edit text as required
            lnkButton.Text = item.GetDataKeyValue("Name").ToString(); // Where I set the DataKeyNames as 'Name' in MasterTableView
        }
    }

Regards,
Shinu.
