[Solved] How to toggle hyperlink for whole row?

[Alec]

Apparently, I have a template column for edit link, but is there a way I can make the whole row clickable so that when i click on a row, it goes to a page that i want it go to?

Hello Alec,

You can use the RowClick command of the grid as shown below and redirect to another page. Also set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property of the grid to true.
aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"  OnItemCommand="RadGrid1_ItemCommand">
  <ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true" >
  </ClientSettings>

c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "RowClick")
        {
            Response.Redirect("EditForm.aspx");
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Great, but how can I access the data item?

I tried e.Item.DataItem but it's null. I need that as the edit page needs the row id.

Hello Alec,

DataItem is null after a post-back and so this object would be available only during data-binding. But rather you can access the data item and pass its index as shown below:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "RowClick" && e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            int index = dataItem.ItemIndex;
            Response.Redirect("EditForm.aspx?Index:"+ index +"");
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Okay...but i cant use index, it will have to be the id of the record...

[Princy]

Hello Alec,

You can either try accessing the id field using the datakeyvalue for the mastertableview as shown below:
aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"  OnItemCommand="RadGrid1_ItemCommand">
    <MasterTableView  DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataKeyNames="Id">

c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "RowClick" && e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            string strtxt = dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("Id").ToString();
            Response.Redirect("EditForm.aspx?Index:"+ strtxt +"");
        }
    }

or you can access the id directly if the field is set as a column in the grid:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "RowClick" && e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            string strtxt = dataItem["Id"].Text;
            Response.Redirect("EditForm.aspx?Index:"+ strtxt +"");
        }
    }

Thanks

Princey, that gave me a null dataItem 

I have datakeyname in mastertableview. Is it because i bind the grid at code behind?

rgLead.DataSource =

LeadBO.getAllLeads();
rgLead.DataBind();
