Hide a textbox value in edit mode

[Clive Hoggar]

Hi

I have a column containing a hashed password, and when the grid is in edit mode,
with the edit form displayed, I don't want the hashed form to appear, just a blank textbox.

I haven't been able to find the right event/method to clear the current content from the
textbox in the edit form, while allowing the new content that is typed in to be bound when
the update takes place.

The column is already a template column.
I am using Q2 2009 on this particular site.

Can you help? (VB preferred)

Thanks

Clive

Hello Clive,

In order to clear the column containing hashed password in edit mode, access the control(TextBox) in ItemDataBound event and then clear it.

VB.Net:

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridItemEventArgs)
    If TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditFormItem AndAlso e.Item.IsInEditMode Then
        Dim editItem As GridEditFormItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditFormItem)
        Dim txtpwd As TextBox = DirectCast(editItem.FindControl("TextBox1"), TextBox)
        txtpwd.Text = ""
    End If
End Sub

Thanks,
Princy.
