Hi there,
I am using the rad Grid control in one of my applications and it is bound to a datatable. The Datatable is generated via a Stored Procedure containing a Dynamic SQL. In other words the fields returned by the Stored Proc may not have fixed names at every call and I have no control over this.
Having said the above, I would like each cell in the grid to be a hyperlink with a client or server side function. This function should populate a set of textboxes located on the same page as the Grid.
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks
Noel

Hi,
If your grid columns will be changing on every postback/rebind, then you should be using programmatic grid definition. You should create your grid entirely in the Page_Init event, so that no ViewState is tracked for the grid. Thus, you will be able to change the columns based on the data fields returned from the database on postback.
As for the links in the column cells, one approach would be to use GridTemplateColumn with a LinkButton in the ItemTemplate. Thus, your link buttons can display data values and perform some action on postback.
