Lock a row from being dropped to via drag and drop

[Kevin]

I have a postion table that I drag and drop personnel to positions, however they want the ability to lock out positions.  So what I do is put a number in a field in the db that pulls into the grid.  I turn this number invisible for the column but now how can I lock out the row from being dropped to in the drag and drop event.  Only using code behind so i am using the rowDrop event.

Protected Sub myGridSoldier_RowDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridDragDropEventArgs) Handles myGridSoldier.RowDrop

        If e.DestDataItem.OwnerTableView.ClientID = myGridPositions.MasterTableView.ClientID Then
            For i As Integer = 0 To e.DraggedItems.Count - 1
                Dim SSN As String = e.DraggedItems(i).GetDataKeyValue("SSN")
                Dim PositionId As Integer = e.DestDataItem.GetDataKeyValue("intPositionId")

                HFSSN.Value = SSN
                HFPosition.Value = PositionId

                FillInfo(SSN, PositionId)

                pnlSoldierInfo_POP.Show()
            Next
        End If
    End Sub

Hello Kevin,

In order to implement the desired functionality, I recommend that you use the OnRowDropping event. In its event handler you can identify the target element on which the dragged grid record is dropped. If this element does not meet your criteria for acceptable target, cancel the operation by setting args.set_cancel(true) where args is the second argument passed to the OnRowDropping handler. Additionally, to determine the destination element or set it explicitly use the get_destinationHtmlElement() and set_destinationHtmlElement() properties that can be accessed through the args argument in the handler.
Please examine the Drag and Drop of Grid Items help topic for additional information.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
