Is there any way to access a label in the Grid's CommandItemTemplate?

[Acadia]

As in:

<CommandItemTemplate>

<asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnUA" Text="Update All" CommandName="UpdateAll" CssClass="CommandButton" />

<asp:Label ID="lblUpdMsg" runat="server" ForeColor="Red"></asp:Label>

</CommandItemTemplate>


I want to be able to set the value of  lblUpdMsg in code behind but it isn't recognized.  is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi Acadia,

Try accessing the label from the CommandItemTemplate in the ItemDataBound event as shown below.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridCommandItem)

{

GridCommandItem cmditm = (GridCommandItem)e.Item;

Label lbl = (Label)cmditm.FindControl("lblUpdMsg");

// lbl.Text="CustomText";

}

}

Thanks
Shinu.
