Manipulating Grid column - Adding link button

[Vijaianand]

I have radgrid with itemplate for every column like below

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" GridLines="Vertical" Skin="Hay" PageSize="250"
      AllowSorting="True" AllowPaging="True" ShowGroupPanel="False" AutoGenerateColumns="false"
      Width="100%" >
      <PagerStyle Mode="Slider"></PagerStyle>
      <MasterTableView ShowGroupFooter="true" GroupsDefaultExpanded="False" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"
          GroupHeaderItemStyle-BackColor="white" GroupHeaderItemStyle-ForeColor="Black"
          GroupHeaderItemStyle-Font-Size="Medium" DataKeyNames="SkillID">
          <GroupByExpressions>
              <telerik:GridGroupByExpression>
                  <SelectFields>
                      <telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="SkillAreaId" HeaderText=" " />
                      <telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="SkillArea" HeaderText=" " />
                  </SelectFields>
                  <GroupByFields>
                      <telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="SkillAreaId" HeaderText="" HeaderValueSeparator=" " />
                  </GroupByFields>
              </telerik:GridGroupByExpression>
          </GroupByExpressions>
          <Columns>
              <telerik:GridTemplateColumn  UniqueName="SkillID">
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <b>
                          <%# Eval("SkillID")%>
                      </b>
                  </ItemTemplate>
                  <FooterTemplate>
                  </FooterTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
              <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <%# Eval("Skill")%>
                  </ItemTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
              <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                  <HeaderTemplate>
                      None<br />
                      0</HeaderTemplate>
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton1" runat="server" /></ItemTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
              <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                  <HeaderTemplate>
                      Basic<br />
                      1</HeaderTemplate>
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton2" runat="server" /></ItemTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

I  been trying to access each column in the grid to add a link button for each row with the same event attached to all the link button. But I am stuck at even getting the column value or adding link button to the column. I tried below,

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemDataBound

If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then
            Dim itm As GridDataItem = CType(e.Item, GridDataItem)
 itm("SkillId").Controls.Add(New LiteralControl("test"))
End If

But nothing works. I just simply want to get the value of the column first and embed a link button to the column and trigger a common event. Help me out.

Hello,

Try the following code.
VB:

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemCreated(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs)
    If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then
        Dim item As GridDataItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridDataItem)
        Dim cell As TableCell = DirectCast(item("SkillID"), TableCell)
        Dim btn As New LinkButton()
        btn.ID = "Link"
        cell.Controls.Add(btn)
    End If
End Sub
