Programmatic RadGrid and Inserting/Updating events not firing

[Todd]

I am dynammically creating a RadGrid on a Web User Control that is also added to the web form dynamically.  I am calling DataBind() after each RadGrid creation on PageLoad and not utilizing NeedDataSource.  I am trying to insert/update in an automatically generated edit form, which is rendering nicely, except that the Insert and Update Commands are not firing.  I wish to catch the Insert and Update Commands to perform the record insert/updates - but those events are not firing after clicking on the insert and update links on the edit forms.  I cannot use any Automatic inserting or updating and wish to perform the CRUD methods manually.  Am I expecting too much from this control to handle all of this runtime generation?

                RadGrid radgrid = new RadGrid();
                radgrid.ID = "uc_attributeValues" + categoryAttributeID;
                radgrid.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = new string[] { "KeepHistoryGroupID" };
                radgrid.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
                radgrid.Skin = "Vista";
                radgrid.Width = Unit.Percentage(95);
                radgrid.EnableViewState = true;
                radgrid.AllowAutomaticInserts = false;
                radgrid.AllowAutomaticUpdates = false;
                radgrid.AllowAutomaticDeletes = false;
                radgrid.MasterTableView.CommandItemDisplay = GridCommandItemDisplay.Top;
                radgrid.ItemCommand += new GridCommandEventHandler(radgrid_ItemCommand);
                radgrid.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = true;
                radgrid.UpdateCommand += new GridCommandEventHandler(radgrid_UpdateCommand);
                radgrid.InsertCommand += new GridCommandEventHandler(radgrid_InsertCommand);

Hello Todd,

Can you tell us why you cannot use NeedDataSource event?
If you supply RadGrid.DataSource on that event instead explicitly call DataBind you will be able easily handle all Insert/Update/Delete commands.

Secondly can you show you us the code when you call DataBind on RadGrid?

All the best,
