Hi,

I want to validate usercontrol controls (client and server side) as the result of add/edit item of the grid.
Please refer to example from telerik website.
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/dataediting/usercontroleditform/defaultcs.aspx

I have set required field validator to the usercontrol fields but it doesnt fire validators on postback.
Any example is appreciated.

regards
Mac

Hello Mac,

Based on the quoted demo example I have attached a small sample project that runs as expected on my side. Please give it a try and let me know what your findings are.

I did convert the code to vs2010 project and it worked with validation.
However i  have one issue

 I am trying to make it work with RadGrid's EnableViewState = "False"
I have set the usercontrol's textbox ViewStateMode = "Enabled" but when i postback i dont get the modified values and for insert the textbox always returns null so validator keeps on firing.

Any help is appreciated since the viewstate is very huge and i get lot of performance gain if i disabled the viewstate.

Also in my scenario i have a grid in usercontrol and inside the grid i call another user control. do you think that will be an issue?

Regards
Mac

Hello Mac,

I am afraid that RadGrid does not manage the state of custom edit forms (User control & Form template) when its EnableViewState property is set to "false". For more details you can check the following help article:

Optimizing ViewState usage

I hope this helps,
