</ItemTemplate>

 

 

</asp:DataList>

Cs file

 

 

private RadDatePicker getdate= new RadDatePicker();

 

 

 

protected

 

void Save_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

 

{

 

 

 

 

foreach (DataListItem ls in someid.Items)

 

{

 

int key= (int)someid.DataKeys[ls.ItemIndex];

 

getdate= (

RadDatePicker)ls.FindControl("RadDate1");

 

 

object somevariable = Convert.ToDateTime(getdate.SelectedDate); //each time the date is null

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

}

 

 

}

I really appreciate for your help.

Thanks

Hello Mohammed,

One possible option in this case would be to use the client side api of the control, and trigger an AjaxRequest to the server. For example, when a selection is made, you can go to the server via an AjaxRequest, and persist the selected value in the database, or add it to the list.
