HeaderText visible when associated field is not visible in EditForms mode.

[Judy Markworth]

Hi, I have a grid whose EditMode is set to "EditForms".  When the user chooses to insert a new item, I have several fields that should not be visible (they are visible in edit mode, however).  As shown in the code below, in insert mode, I set the visible property to false on those fields.  This works just fine except for the fact that the HeaderText is still displayed.  How do I hide that HeaderText?  Someone else here asked this question in another thread but it was never answered.  Can you help?

Hello Judy,

You can try the following code snippet to hide the control and HeaderText.

VB.Net:

Protected Sub grdMember_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridItemEventArgs)
    If TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditFormInsertItem AndAlso e.Item.IsInEditMode Then
        If e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted Then
            Dim edititem As GridEditFormInsertItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditFormInsertItem)
            edititem("FirstName").Parent.Visible = False
            edititem("MEMBER_RB_TERMINATION_DATE").Parent.Visible = False
            edititem("MEMBER_RB_TERMINATION_COMMENTS").Parent.Visible = False
            edititem("MEMBER_RB_ACTIVE").Parent.Visible = False
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Thanks,
Princy.
