How to get the cell value in RowLoaded event ?

[Bibhudutta]

I am trying to get a particular cell value for all rows in the RowLoaded event, but I am unable to get that.

        private void radGridView1_RowLoaded(object sender, RowLoadedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Row is Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewRow)
            {
                if (e.DataElement != null)
                {
                    string phoneNumber = e.Row.Cells[12].ToString();
                }
            }
        }

But instead of giving the cell value, it's giving "Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewCell".

Please help me out.

At last, I got the solution.

        private void radGridView1_RowLoaded(object sender, RowLoadedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Row is Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewRow)
            {
                if (e.DataElement != null)
                {
                    System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock textBlock = (TextBlock)e.Row.Cells[12].Content;
                    string phoneNumber = textBlock.Text;                   
                }
            }
        }

Hope it helps somebody. :)

Hello,

You may also  try using the Value property of the cell rather than the Content property.

Pavlov,

 May be I am missing some references but I am not seeing Value property for Cell. I am using 2015 Q1 by the way. We don't have access to Text property of Content. I am not sure why it is so hard for Telerik to have a public property which can provide value of a cell. I have spent 2 hours searching to find this. I am binding my GridView with a ItemsSource, Columns are auto populated.

Hi,

Generally, we do not recommend working with the visual elements (i.e. GridViewCell) as RadGridView is a virtualized control and its elements are reused as they are brought in and out the view area. You can also check our online documentation explaining how the UI virtualization works. 

In order to access the values you can use RadGridView.Items collection and work with the bound data items and their properties directly.
