[Nani]

I have a EditItemTemplate column with dropdownlist in der...i want to access dropdown list in the code behind but enable access it

Code snipshot

ASPX:
<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowAutomaticDeletes="false" AllowAutomaticInserts="True"

AllowSorting="true" AllowAutomaticUpdates="True" AllowPaging="false"

AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1" ShowStatusBar="true"

Width="950px" OnItemDataBound= "rgQueue2_OnItemDataBound">

<MasterTableView Width="100%" CommandItemDisplay="TopAndBottom" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1"

HorizontalAlign="NotSet" AllowSorting="false" EditMode="InPlace">

<Columns>

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Source" DataField="SourceName" UniqueName="Source"

 HeaderStyle-Width="250px" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Left">

<ItemTemplate>

<asp:Label ID="lblsource" runat="server"> <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "SourceName")%> </asp:Label>

</ItemTemplate>

<EditItemTemplate>

<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlsource" runat="server">

</asp:DropDownList>

</EditItemTemplate>

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

ASPX.CS:

protected void rgQueue2_OnItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

{ 

if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && e.Item.IsInEditMode)

{ 

GridEditableItem item = e.Item as GridEditableItem;
DropDownList list = item.FindControl("ddlsource") as DropDownList;

 

}

}

Problem is its not entering the if statement even...can anyone suggested me to get through it..!!!

Hi Nani,

I followed  your scenario and everything works as expected on my side. I am attaching the project which I used to test your code.

Also, note that the condition in the if statement is satisfied only when you edit rows or you are inserting new rows. Otherwise the condition is not satisfied and you cannot access the control.

Kind regards,
