[Lars]

Hi,

i have a problem, inserting new items into my radgrid. The Button didn't appear on the grid.

Couldn't find a solution on this forum so far. Could anybody help?
What is missing?

Thanks in advance!

            </Columns>
        </mastertableview>
    </telerik:RadGrid>

The data was bind manually

private void WSDataBind()
{
        WholesalerBM oWholeSalerBM = new WholesalerBM();
        WholesalerFilter oWholesalerFilter = new WholesalerFilter();
        oWholesalerFilter.WholesalerUID = new Guid ("36C68452-36BF-4FF2-8E32-39DAB8490839");

        WholesalerDataSet oWholesalerDataSet = oWholeSalerBM.SelectWholesalerWithRelations(oWholesalerFilter, true);
        Session[_strWholesalerDataSet] = oWholesalerDataSet;

        RadGrid1.DataSource = oWholesalerDataSet.WholesalerMRDR;
        RadGrid1.DataBind();
}

Hello Lars,

Try setting CommandItemDisplay to Top or Bottom for the master table view of the grid.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, that helps. ;-)

Could you also give me a hint, how i can handle different state's of the readonly flag of GridBounColums at this point for editing or inserting?
Some Datafields should be only visible, when i am inserting, but not by editing.

Thanks!

Hello Lars,

You can try out the following code to hide the column from displaying in EditMode but show it in the insert mode the grid:
c#:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode) && (!e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted))
        {
            GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
            item["columnUniqueName"].Parent.Visible = false;

        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
