How To Get Value From GridDropDownColumn

[Peper]

Hi,

I'm using radgrid 2008 q2 with vs2005. on the radgrid property, i bound a griddropdowncolumn. usually if the bound using GridBoundColumn, i get the value with:

Dim

task_code As String = (TryCast(editedItem("task_code").Controls(0), TextBox)).Text

 

i already try this:

Dim

id_tc_type As String = (TryCast(editedItem("id_tc_type").Controls(0), DropDownList)).SelectedValue

 

but did not work, please help me.

Thanks
Peper

Hello peper,

I tried out the following code at my end, to access the selected item of the dropdownlist and it works as expected.
cs:

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridItemEventArgs)
     If (TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditableItem) AndAlso (e.Item.IsInEditMode) Then
         Dim item As GridEditableItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)
         Dim strtxt As String = DirectCast(item("FirstName1").Controls(0), DropDownList).SelectedValue
     End If
End Sub

Thanks
Princy.

Hi princy, thanks for the response. the property that i use for update data from radgrid is UpdateCommand. with my previous try and your response, i figure out that, i just need to modify a little bit of my previous try, so the result that work for me is:

Dim

id_tc As String = (TryCast(editedItem("id_tc").Controls(0), RadComboBox)).SelectedValue

 

From my previus try, i use DropDownList Not RadComboBox.

Thanks
