How to add several rows to grid in code-behind

[blablabla]

Hi,

I need to be able to add several rows to a RadGrid when I click on the Add button I have defined in the CommandItemTemplate.

The radgrid is using InPlace editing. The template has an "Add" button and a textbox next to it that specifies the number of rows to add.

So let's say I specified 5 in the textbox, I clicked on the Add button, and the ItemCommand or ButtonClick events are fired. How can I add 5 rows to the grid in my code-behind?

I tried to catch the Command in the ItemCommand event and then calling MyGrid.MasterTableView.InserItem() inside a for loop, but it doesn't work.

Thank you.

Hello,

Check the following demo which implements the same.

Thanks for the reply Shinu, but I don't see how that example implements what I'm asking.

I already have something similar. I want to be able to add several rows at once when I click the button "Add Record", but I haven't figured out how yet.

I ended up adding empty rows to the "datasource" then rebinding the grid. I put datasource in quotes because I was binding to a list of entity objects and now I'm binding to a union of a list of entity objects saved in session and the result from the database.
