Iterate through DataSource of a grid

[Michael Love]

Hi there.

How would I iterate through the DataSource of a grid? I have items that are not in a column, but are part of the datasource that I need to get at.

Thanks, Mike

You can handle the ItemDatabound event of the RadGrid and cast the DataItem object to get at the columns you need.

I hope that helps.

Hi Robert.

Thanks for the reply. I need to do it when processing a button click.

In that case, you could add them to the DataKeyNames collection of your RadGrid and then access them in the button click. Like so:

foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.Items)
            {
                item.GetDataKeyValue("DataKeyName");
            }

You can iterate through the items collection and then pass the DataKeyName that you want to know the value of.

I hope that helps.
