[Solved] Iconic Edit Column with Link

[Richard]

I have the following column which takes the user to a new page when clicking on the Edit Text:

<telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn Text="Edit" HeaderText="Edit" DataNavigateUrlFields="AccountID"
 DataNavigateUrlFormatString="Account.aspx?AccountID={0}">
 <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
 <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />
</telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>

How can I replace the field text with the Edit Item Icon?

Hi Richard,

One suggestion will be to use a GridTemplateColumn with a Hyperlink in its ItemTemplate instead of GridHyperLinkColumn. Give a try with the following approach and see whether it helps.

ASPX:

   <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateCol" HeaderText="EditColumn" >
            <ItemTemplate>
                <a href='Account.aspx?AccountID=<%# Convert.ToString(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"AccountID")) %>'>
                   <asp:Image ID="Image1" ImageUrl="~/Image/Edit.gif" Runat="server"></asp:Image>
                </a>
             </ItemTemplate>
   </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
