Hello,

I want to utilize the Rad grid control on a web page which is heavily used for the data entry work. The way the user wants the grid to work is that they want to add all the records and then click a "Save All" button which will insert all the newly added data to the SQL server database. By doing so they want to prevent the post back / Ajax request to the server for every new record that is added and thereby save the data entry time.

Also, the number of new records to be added is not fixed, so when the user clicks on the tab key on the last cell of the new record a new row should get created and it should happen on the client side without hitting the server.

Is it possible to do this using Rad grid control? I have seen a demo where tool tip is used to achieve similar functionality but the users are not very confortable with that design approach. They want to do the data entry directly on the datagrid.

Please advice.

Regards,
Rajiv
