How to allow/disallow row Edit/Delete based on certain conditions..

[gc_0620]

Hi all. I am using Visual Studio 08 SP1 with Telerik Asp.net ajax 2010 version..

Using below link as prototype, I would like to allow edit/delete functions for  certain rows  (Say allow edit/delete  to those Rows only if City = "London", if not edit/delete will be cancelled/not allowed).

Below is my radgrid and onitemcommand for cancel. 

Thanks

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
       {
       // Here I need help to allow edit/delete for only Customers from London...
           if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.EditSelectedCommandName)
           {

                 e.Canceled = true;
               }
           }

Hello,

One option is you can try the following code snippet in ItemCommand event.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
   {
     if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.EditSelectedCommandName)
       {
          GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0];
          if(item["City"].Text=="London")
              e.Canceled = true;
       }
   }

Another option is disabling the EditSelect button from client side when selecting the row itself. In OnRowSelected client event check for the cell value of column 'City' and  then disable the 'EditSelect' button in CommandItemTemplate accordingly.

Hope this information helps,
Princy.
