Hi Telerik Team (or anyone else who can help),

I have spent all day searching to the ends of the internet to try to find out how to save all the data from a RadGrid at once. I have found many other people who want to do this, but cannot find a good answer as to how! I also have another post about this topic but no one has replied........... can it be done!

It is easy to populate the whole grid at one time, but as I have read many times about all the Automatic Grid Saving Stuff there is no mention of how to save the whole grid at one time. Our users want us to present them with a grid to fill in, then after they look at the whole thing and make sure they have everything correct - then they want us to save it. They don't want us to save one row at a time. Our upper management can't believe that there isn't a simple way to do this and right now they aren't thinking very highly of the Telerik package they bought us!

We have a grid represented in the code below, and it loads great, and works great if you click on a row, edit it, then click on another row and it saves, but they don't want that. i was able to put a few lines of code in the page load that will make the whole grid editable, but then how do we save it?

Is there a nice way I can use the Telerik RadGrid auto save stuff to save each row - maybe a loop to access each row then do something? If I could have a save button then if that button is pressed execute a loop to access each row and call the UpdateCommand for each that would work but we can't quite figure out how to do it.

Here is my grid code, please let me know if you would like me to provide anything else:

Also - if there is a better way to do it, something else besides a grid to display data, edit then save it please let me know.
