[Solved] Preset some values on EditCommand

[aung maw]

Hi All, In the documentation it was possible to preset some values when Insert Command fires as shown below.  How can I preset when a user clicks Edit??  Basically I'm trying to set some values before it gets into edit mode.

Please assist.
Regards,
J.




private void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
  if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.InitInsertCommandName)
  {
     e.Canceled = true;
     e.Item.OwnerTableView.InsertItem();

     GridEditableItem insertedItem = e.Item.OwnerTableView.GetInsertItem();
     TextBox box = insertedItem.FindControl("txtEmployeeID") as TextBox;
     box.Text = "11";
  }
}

Hello,

I hope you are using a FormTemplate as your EditForm. If so you can bind your textbox declaratively to the required field using the syntax shown below so that it shows up in EditMode:
aspx:

 <EditFormSettings EditFormType="Template" >
                <FormTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" Text=<%#Bind("FirstName") %> runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
                </FormTemplate>

 </EditFormSettings>

 (OR)
 you can preset the EditForm control values in the ItemDataBound event as shown below:
c#:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
            GridEditableItem editItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)editItem.FindControl("TextBox1");
            txtbx.Text = "11";
        }
    }

Thanks
