[Hans van Rijnswoud]

Hi,

I have a simple Grid with a gridTemplateColumn with inside 2 asp imageButton who perform specific action.
When i click on this button appear in the grid the auto-generated edit form.
How can i disable this ?
I try to put in the RadGrid definition and in the MasterTableView AllowAutomaticInserts to false but without result.

Here is the definition of my Grid:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" CssClass="grid" runat="server" Skin="Office2007"
            GridLines="None" PageSize="10" Height="300px" OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_OnNeedDataSource"
            AutoGenerateColumns="false" ShowFooter="true" AllowAutomaticUpdates="false"
            AllowAutomaticInserts="false" AllowAutomaticDeletes="false" AutoGenerateEditColumn="false">
            <MasterTableView TableLayout="Fixed" ClientDataKeyNames="AddressID" AutoGenerateColumns="false"
            Width="100%" AllowAutomaticUpdates="false" AllowAutomaticInserts="false" AllowAutomaticDeletes="false">
                <Columns>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="AddressId" HeaderText="Id" AllowFiltering="false">
                        <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" Width="20" />
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" Width="20" />
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Name" HeaderText="Naam">
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" />
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="AddressTypeObj.Name" HeaderText="Adres type">
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" />
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                     <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateActions" AllowFiltering="false">
                        <HeaderTemplate>
                            <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
                                <tr>
                                    <td colspan="3" align="center"><p>Acties</p></td>
                                </tr>
                            </table>
                        </HeaderTemplate>
                        <ItemTemplate>
                        <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
                            <tr>
                                <td style="width:50%; border:0px; text-align:center;">
                                    <telerik:RadCodeBlock ID="RadCodeBlock1" runat="server">

                                    </telerik:RadCodeBlock>
                                </td>
                                <td style="width:50%; border:0px; text-align:center;">
                                    <telerik:RadCodeBlock ID="RadCodeBlock2" runat="server">

                                </td>
                            </tr>
                        </table>
                        </ItemTemplate>
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
                        <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
                    </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                </Columns>
            </MasterTableView>
            <PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevAndNumeric" NextPageText="Volgende pagina" PrevPageText="Vorige pagina" NextPagesToolTip="Volgende pagina" PrevPagesToolTip="Vorige pagina" PagerTextFormat="Pagina: {4}  Pagina {0} tot {3} op {5}"  />
        </telerik:RadGrid>

Any idee?

Thanks.

Edwin.

Hello Edwin,

If you want to show a custom EditForm on clicking the Button then you can set the EditFormType to Template in the EditFormSettings as shown below:
aspx:

 <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server">
     <MasterTableView EditMode="EditForms">
       <EditFormSettings EditFormType="Template"  >
        <FormTemplate>

         Custom controls

       </FormTemplate>
      </EditFormSettings>
     </MasterTableView>

Thanks
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Thanks for your quick answer but this is not what i want to do.
When I click on my button, I don't want to show the Auto-Generated Edit form inside the grid ( of any other form).
I want nothing ;-)
When I click on my button, i perform well a postback. Maybe I need to add some code to disable this Edit Form?

Thanks,

Edwin.

Hello Edwin,

If you dont want to display any form on clicking the ImageButton, you would have to change the CommandName of the Button from Edit to some other name. When you set the CommandName to Edit, the grid row automatically opens up in EditMode.

Hi Shinu,

Thank you very much. It was the solution.
