GridGroupFooterItem

[Luis]

Hello, I'm trying to add, dynamically, a radbutton to the GroupFooterItem and this button needs to have some values in the commandname and commandargument. These values are related to the cells from a group in the grid. So far I have been able to add those buttons with the OnPreRender event, but I'm stuck on how to set those values with a specific cell in the group.

I have thought about querying db again and use foreach to assign the appropiate values, but I think this scenario is error prone, so leaving it as a last resource.

any pointers???

Hello Luis,

Try the following code to pass the cell value as command argument for button.
C#:

string value;
protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

 foreach (GridGroupHeaderItem groupHeader in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.GroupHeader))

 {

  int count = 0;

  GridItem[] children = groupHeader.GetChildItems();

  foreach (GridDataItem child in children)//looping through to retrieve cell value

  {

     GridDataItem childItem = child as GridDataItem;

     value = childItem["LastName"].Text;

     count++;

  }

 }

 GridGroupFooterItem item = (GridGroupFooterItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.GroupFooter)[0];

 Button btn = new Button();

 btn.ID = "Button1";

 btn.Text = "Delete";

 btn.CommandArgument = value;

 item.Cells[0].Controls.Add(btn);

}

Thanks,
Princy.
