and also want to catch its value of each and every text box that i want to generate after clicking on add new button.

Please help me on this.

Hello Girish,

You can achieve this by creating a GridTemplateColumn with TextBox inside ItemTemplate in aspx and initially setting its visibility as 'False'. Then in PreRender event when the grid is in insert mode set the TemplateColumn's visibility as 'True' to show the TextBox for each row.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="GridTemplateColumn" Visible="false">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" ></asp:TextBox>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)

   {

       if (RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted)

       {

           (RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("GridTemplateColumn") as GridTemplateColumn).Visible = true;

       }
       else
          (RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("GridTemplateColumn") as GridTemplateColumn).Visible = false;


   }

You can access the value of each TextBox in grid row by looping through each grid item .

C#:

   foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.Items)//loops through each item

        {

           TextBox txt = (TextBox)item.FindControl("TextBox1"); //accessing control


           string value = txt.Text; //get the value


        }

      

Thanks,
Princy.

Hello girish,

The RadGrid does not support such functionality by default. However there are various workarounds and one of them is discussed in this forum thread also there is a live demo showing similar functionality with insertion of multiple items at once.
