RadDatePicker selected date problem when I try to add a new record

[Myriam]

hello
I have a RadGrid with MasterTableView and a DetailTableView. In my DetailTableView, when I edit my record, I have a RadDatePicker where I want to put the value of my field "DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI" So I did it that way and that's working fine.

 

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn

 

 

UniqueName="TemplateColumnDateDebutEmploi"

 

 

HeaderText="Date de d‚but de l'emploi"

 

 

DataField="DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI">

 

 

<ItemTemplate>

 

 

<asp:Label ID="LbDATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI") %>'></asp:Label>

 

 

</ItemTemplate>

 

 

<EditItemTemplate>

 

 

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="DPicker_DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI" selecteddate='<%#Eval("DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI") %>' Runat="server">

 

 

<Calendar ID="Calendar_DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI" UseColumnHeadersAsSelectors="False" runat="server" UseRowHeadersAsSelectors="False" ViewSelectorText="x"></Calendar>

 

 

</telerik:RadDatePicker>

 

 

</EditItemTemplate>

 

 

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

My problem is when I click on add new record for my detailTableView, I get the errror
"not a valid cast" (rapid traduction french to english by myself)
on the line 

 

<

telerik:RadDatePicker ID="DPicker_DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI" selecteddate='<%#Eval("DATE_DEBUT_EMPLOI") %>' Runat="server">
What can I do to have the value of my field in that control when I edit but not having an erreur when I try to create a new record in my detailtableview

Thanks again in advance!

(I LOOOOVVVEEEE this forum!)

Hi Myriam,

Try binding the DbSelectedDtae property instead of the SelectedDate property of the RadDatePicker. You can refer the following KB article to get more details.
Using RadDatePicker/RadDateTimePicker as editor in template column of RadGrid
