How to find the ASP Control in Grid

[Sagar Baheti]

Hi,
I am using RadGrid, and in CommandItemTemplate i have one asp DropDownList control. but int the SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) event i am not able to find the that DropDown control. the code is as  follows

<CommandItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Show Results for Status"></asp:Label>
        <asp:DropDownList ID="ResultStatus_DropDownList" runat="server" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ResultStatus_DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged" AutoPostBack="true"></asp:DropDownList>

</CommandItemTemplate>

the code behind is as follows

 ResultStatus_DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// I tried with GridCommandItem
   GridCommandItem CommandItem = (GridCommandItem)e.GetType();
            DropDownList ResultStatus_DropDownList = (DropDownList)CommandItem.FindControl("ResultStatus_DropDownList");

//  But not able to find the ResultStatus_DropDownList control.
}

So please help

Hello Sagar,

In this case DropDownList is the sender argument. All you need is to cast sender to DropDownList.
