[Solved] How to find element in nested grid outside any event

[Muskan Gupta]

Hi,

I have a nested radgrid. I want to update the grid elements on click of Save Button present outside the grid. But I am unable to find the child grid's elements there.

Please help how to get elemnts outside the radgrid event.

Thanks,

Hello Muskan,

I am not sure, if you want to access detail tables or access a RadGrid nested inside the NestedViewTemplate of the main grid. You can try out either of the following code depending on your scenario:

c#:
code to access the edit row elements of the grid nested inside the NestedViewTemplate of the main grid:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridNestedViewItem nestedItem in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.NestedView))
        {
            RadGrid nestedgrid = (RadGrid)nestedItem.FindControl("nestedRadGridID");

            foreach (GridEditableItem childItem in nestedgrid.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.EditItem))
            {
                 //access elements here
                string strtxt = ((TextBox)childItem["BoundColumnUniqueName"].Controls[0]).Text;
            }
        }
    }

code to access the edit row elements of child grid of the main hierarchical grid:

protected void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem parentItem in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            GridTableView childtable = (GridTableView)parentItem.ChildItem.NestedTableViews[0];
            foreach (GridEditableItem childEditItem in childtable.GetItems(GridItemType.EditItem))
            {
                string strtxt = ((TextBox)childEditItem["BoundColumnUniqueName"].Controls[0]).Text;
            }
        }
    }

Hope this helps..
Princy.
