Programmatic Grid Not Firing UpdateCommand

[dave]

I've seen other posts where people are having similar issues. I tried their suggestions and still no good. I cannot get this grid to fire the update command. I'm programmatically creating the grid and using a template edit form...

Grid setup:

  private void SetupStoreGridView()
    {

        // create columns
        GridEditCommandColumn storeEditCol = new GridEditCommandColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeNumberCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeNameCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storePhoneCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeAddressCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeCityCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeStateCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeZipCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeDesignNameCol = new GridBoundColumn();
        GridBoundColumn storeChocolixirCol = new GridBoundColumn();

        // main grid properties
        m_StoreGridViewRad = new RadGrid();
        m_StoreGridViewRad.ID = "StoreGridViewRad";
        m_StoreGridViewRad.GridLines = GridLines.Vertical;
        m_StoreGridViewRad.AllowMultiRowSelection = false;
        m_StoreGridViewRad.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
        m_StoreGridViewRad.AllowSorting = true;
        m_StoreGridViewRad.Skin = "WebBlue";
        m_StoreGridViewRad.Width = Unit.Percentage(95);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.UpdateCommand += new GridCommandEventHandler(m_StoreGridViewRad_UpdateCommand);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.AllowAutomaticUpdates = true;

        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.EditFormSettings.EditFormType = GridEditFormType.Template;
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.EditFormSettings.FormTemplate = new EditStoreTemplate();
        m_StoreGridViewRad.NeedDataSource += new GridNeedDataSourceEventHandler(StoreGridViewRad_NeedDataSource);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.AllowFilteringByColumn = true;

        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = new string[] { StoreAccess.StoreNumber };
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.EnableNoRecordsTemplate = true;

        // add columns to grid
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeEditCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeNumberCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeNameCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storePhoneCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeAddressCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeCityCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeStateCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeZipCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeDesignNameCol);
        m_StoreGridViewRad.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(storeChocolixirCol);

        SetupGridViewColumn(storeNumberCol, StoreAccess.StoreNumber, "Store Number");
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeNameCol, StoreAccess.StoreName, StoreAccess.StoreName);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storePhoneCol, StoreAccess.Phone, StoreAccess.Phone);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeAddressCol, StoreAccess.Address, StoreAccess.Address);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeCityCol, StoreAccess.City, StoreAccess.City);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeStateCol, StoreAccess.State, StoreAccess.State);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeZipCol, StoreAccess.Zip, StoreAccess.Zip);
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeDesignNameCol, StoreAccess.DesignName, "Design Name");
        SetupGridViewColumn(storeChocolixirCol, StoreAccess.Chocolixir, StoreAccess.Chocolixir);

        GridViewPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(m_StoreGridViewRad);
    }

    void m_StoreGridViewRad_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        GridEditableItem ei = ((GridEditableItem)(e.Item));
        Hashtable t1 = new Hashtable();
        ei.ExtractValues(t1);

        string s = t1[StoreAccess.StoreName].ToString();
    }




    protected void StoreGridViewRad_NeedDataSource(object source, GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
    {
        GetStoresToBind();
    }

    void SetupGridViewColumn(GridColumn col, string uniqueName, string heading)
    {
        col.HeaderText = heading;
        col.UniqueName = uniqueName;
        col.ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Left;

        if (col is GridBoundColumn)
        {
            GridBoundColumn bCol = col as GridBoundColumn;
            bCol.DataField = uniqueName;
        }
        else if (col is GridButtonColumn)
        {
            GridButtonColumn buttonCol = col as GridButtonColumn;
            buttonCol.CommandName = uniqueName;
            buttonCol.Text = uniqueName;
        }

    }

public class EditStoreTemplate : IBindableTemplate

    public EditStoreTemplate()
    {

    }

maybe i'm doing something wrong... but i'm pretty sure i followed the demo page closely. any help would be wonderful.

Thanks,

Your question seems to imply that only the update command is failing to fire but just to be sure, are any of them working? If it is just the update command it sounds like a bug, are you using the newest version?

Oops, sorry acidently posted this twice.

[dave]

i haven't tried insertcommand. however if i create a button column and give it a commandName="Update" then the updatecommand event is fired. it just seems like it won't work from my template.

[paul]

What about creating an event handler on the update button and moving your "m_StoreGridViewRad_UpdateCommand" logic to that event?

Sorry I'm afraid this one may be beyond me.

[dave]

is there a way to get the data that was just entered?
