KNOWN PROBLEM: DataBinding: ‘Telerik.Web.UI.GridInsertionObject’ does not contain a property with the name 'XXX '

[Ignjat]

Hello!

I've been trying to find the workaround for the following problem for the last couple of hours, but without any success. I've found many of the possible solutions on the Internet, but none of them was solution to my problem.

The problem occurs when I want to insert data into empty datasource. I've been able to find workarounds for RadComboBoxes, but not for the Textboxes. The error that is displayed is: "DataBinding: 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridInsertionObject' does not contain a property with the name 'OpciPrioritet'."

Here is the code:

.ascx (needed for the RadGrid)

Hi Ignjat,

Please try the following DataBind expression:

Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "DatumPrijave") %>'

You need to change the other expressions as well using the same approach to get a working project.

For a reference how to use DataBinder.Eval() method you could review the following msdn article.

Please let us know whether it works or the issue still persists.

All the best,
