Hello,

i want to display a button and the group header text at a GridGroupHeader cell. After some searching and trying I found some usefull code snippets but the behavior is not as expected. After the PostBack-Event the group header text disappears and only the button is shown.

dataCell.Controls.Add(radButton);

dataCell.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(dataCell.Text));

}

void radButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

}

In a prior test i moved the logic to the PreRender event, but the event registration for the radButton does not work in this case.
Can you please point me to the right direction.

thanks and greetings
Uwe

Hello Uwe,

Try the following code snippet to add a RadButton Control in group header and handle the button click event as shown below.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridGroupHeaderItem)

{

GridGroupHeaderItem item = (GridGroupHeaderItem)e.Item;

RadButton btn1=new RadButton();

btn1.ID = "Button1";

btn1.Text = "do";

btn1.Click += new EventHandler(btn1_Click);

item.Cells[0].Controls.Add(btn1);

}

void btn1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

}

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy

Thanks for the answer, but i haven't testet it jet. I came up with my own solution. I set the header text again in the preRender method and it worked for me.

here ist my solution:

protected void RadGrid1_OnPreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if (sender is RadGrid)

{

var grid = sender as RadGrid;

var items = grid.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.GroupHeader);

foreach (var gridItem in items)

{

var headerItem = gridItem as GridGroupHeaderItem;

var controlCollection = headerItem.DataCell.Controls;

if (controlCollection[2] is LiteralControl)

{

var literalControl = controlCollection[2] as LiteralControl;

literalControl.Text = headerItem.DataCell.Text;

}

i try to test your version the in a few day and provide all with the results.

Thanks
Uwe
