Problem with using labels in grid templates

[Charles]

I have the following code in my aspx page.   
      <telerik:RadGrid...>
                <mastertableview ...>
                    <Columns>  
                         <telerik:GridTemplateColumn Visible = "false">
                         <EditItemTemplate>
                         <asp:Label runat= "server" ID = "test1" Text="bah1" Visible="false"></asp:Label>
                         </EditItemTemplate>
                         </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                   <Columns> 
            <mastertableview ...>
          <telerik:RadGrid>
   
however when visible is false, the text is hidden, however the autogenerated ":" is still visible. I can't remove the label, because I need it later on.

Hi Charles,

Give a try with the following code snippet and see whether it helps.

ASPX:

    <telerik:GridTemplateColumn Visible = "false" UniqueName="TempCol"  >
                         <EditItemTemplate>
                         <asp:Label runat= "server" ID = "test1" Text="bah1" Visible="false"></asp:Label>
                         </EditItemTemplate>
                         </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditFormItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditFormItem editFormItem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
            editFormItem["TempCol"].Parent.Visible = false;
        }

  }

Thanks
