Parent and child girds

[stevied]

I have a Parent RadGrid, you can click on the Rows and the child rad grid will appear. You can then go and add items to the child grid, once a new item is inserted I need to rebind the parent grid but still maintain the originally selected row.

I have the folllowing code, it rebinds the parent gird but i lose my selected row.

Protected Sub rgRiskAssessmentItems_ItemInserted(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridInsertedEventArgs) Handles rgRiskAssessmentItems.ItemInserted
        If Not e.Exception Is Nothing Then
            e.ExceptionHandled = True
            e.KeepInInsertMode = True
            SetMessage("Risk Assessment Item cannot be inserted. Reason: " + e.Exception.Message)
        Else
            SetMessage("New Risk Assessment Item has been added!")
            'Make sure we get a submit button in the top grid after adding an item to the lower grid
            rgRiskAssessment.Rebind()
            'rgRiskAssessmentItems.Rebind()

        End If

    End Sub

Thanks for reading..

Hi,

Please refer to the following code library which demonstrates how you can persist selected state in hierarchy on rebind:

Thanks for the reply I am using Master/Detail Grids as demo'd here, does the same still apply?

Hi,

In this case to preserve the selected rows you can try using the approach provided in the following help article:

thanks Pavlina,  unfortunately I am using row clicks for my Master grid...

<clientsettings allowkeyboardnavigation="true" enablepostbackonrowclick="true"  >
                <Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" />
            </clientsettings>

and i see from your link it says...

"This example only works if you have not enabled client-side selection (that is, you are selecting rows using Command buttons)."

Is there a way round this?

Many thanks.
