[Solved] Identify radgrid row

[William]

Hi. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to get the index of a row that's clicked in a radgrid?

Hello William,

Please try the following approaches:

1) Client side:

<ClientSettings>
    <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True" />
    <ClientEvents OnRowSelected="RowSelected" />
</ClientSettings>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    function RowSelected(sender, args)
    {
        alert(args.get_itemIndexHierarchical());
    }
</script>

2) Server side

<ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true">
    <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True" />
</ClientSettings>

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CommandName == "RowClick")
    {
        int selectedIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex;
    }
}

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Thanks Daniel, that works great.

I was wondering if you had any thoughts about this. After a button in a row is clicked, I need to access a value from the row directly above it. 

Thanks again.

Hello William,

Try out the following code to access a control in the previous row when the button in a row is clicked.

cs:

protected void Button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
       Button btn = (Button)sender;
        GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)btn.NamingContainer;
        int index = dataItem.ItemIndex;
        string strtxt = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items[index - 1]["ColumnUniqueName"].Text;
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Hi Princy. Thanks a lot but I'm still having a problem with this. I thought that maybe I should include some of my code.

If

 

e.CommandName = "DeleteEmployee" Then

 

Dim

 

dataItem As Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem = CType(e.Item, Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem)

 

 

Dim itemValue As String = dataItem("EmployeeID").Text

 

 

 

Dim

 

selectedIndex As Integer = e.Item.ItemIndex

 

 

Dim

 

EmpID As String = itemValue

End If

What I was hoping to do is use this from the code you provided  : 

 

Dim

 

strtxt As String = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items(index - 1)("EmployeeID").Text

 

 

but it's not assigning the value to strtxt

C#

 

if (e.CommandName == "DeleteEmployee")
{

 Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem dataItem = (Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem)e.Item;
 string itemValue = dataItem("EmployeeID").Text;
 int selectedIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex;
 string EmpID = itemValue;
 string strtxt = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items(index - 1)("EmployeeID").Text;
}

Thanks again

Hello William,

Can you try replacing the last line of your code i.e.,

Dim strtxt As String = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items(index - 1)("EmployeeID").Text

with the following code strip

Dim strtxt As String = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items(selectedIndex - 1)("EmployeeID").Text

and see if it helps.

Thanks
Princy.
