Link Button on Data Grid populated from an ArrayList

[Danny]

Hello

I have a radgrid configured to return results based on an ArrayList. The results are a list of file names, and are displayed correctly. I would like to configure it, so when I click on one of the items in the grid a peice of server side (c#) code is executed. I have done this in other grids where they are bound to SQL, but I can't find out how to pass in the data from the link into the server side code. In other grids, I pass it in like below, but because the columns are automatic and it is an ArrayList, this seems more difficult, any suggestion would be welcomed.

 

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn meta:resourcekey="ColumnSubject">

 

 

<ItemTemplate>

 

 

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="btnShowEmailPreview" Width="200px" CommandName="RowClick" CommandArgument='<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"ExecutedActionLogID")%>'

 

 

><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Subject")%></asp:LinkButton>

 

 

</ItemTemplate>

 

 

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Hello Danny,

Could you specify where the piece of server-side code is coming from? From the database, or you have it in code-behind somewhere?

Thanks.

Sorry for the delay in replying.

Here is the code of the grid. I would like to pass the DataField from the ArrayList as a command argument.

 

 

<telerik:RadGrid ID="rgAttachments" Width="100.7%" OnItemCommand="rgAttachments_ItemCommand" runat="server">

 

 

 

<MasterTableView>

 

 

 

<Columns>

 

 

 

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="" UniqueName="AttachmentName" HeaderText="MyHeaderText">

 

 

 

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

 

 

 

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="AttachName" DataField="" meta:resourcekey="ColumnSubject">

 

 

 

<ItemTemplate>

 

 

 

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="btnDownloadAttachment" Width="200px" CommandName="RowClick" CommandArgument=""

 

 

 

>Download</asp:LinkButton>

 

 

 

</ItemTemplate>

 

 

 

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

 

 

 

</Columns></MasterTableView>

 

 

 

</telerik:RadGrid>

 

 

 

</telerik:RadPageView>

 

 

 

</telerik:RadMultiPage>

Here is the c# code

 

 

 

protected void rgAttachments_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)

 

{

 

 

if (e.CommandName == "RowClick")

 

{

{

 

 

 

String AttachmentName = e.CommandArgument.ToString();

 

 

 

}
}

Hello Danny,

You need to set a binding expression for the CommandArgument property of the link button as follows:

CommandArgument='<%# Eval("YourDataField") %>'

Hope it helps.
