[Solved] RadGrid InPlace Edit

[Saurabh Srivastava]

Hi,

I am using thre inPlace edit mode for my grid. I have all but one column which are defined as readonly. I noticed that when I click on edit, if the readonly column has a NULL/Blank, the display is messed up. A black line appears on the row if the column has values whereas it disappears if the column is blank/NULL.

This looks really odd in my scenario. Is there a way this can be corrected?

Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,

Try adding ' ' to the readonly field while in edit mode as shown below.

ASPX:

     <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="SupplierID" ReadOnly="true"  DataType="System.Int32" HeaderText="SupplierID"
                            SortExpression="SupplierID" UniqueName="SupplierID">
                        </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

CS:

 protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem editItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            editItem["SupplierID"].Text = " ";
        }

    }

Hi Shinu,

Thanks for the response. A quick clarification before I implement it:

Shouldn't I be checking the value first and then doing the &nbsp assignment. Because if I do it straightaway, I guess if there is a value in the column, it would be overwritten (although I haven't tried it out).

Hi Saurabh,

You can check the following condition in the ItemDataBound event.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem editItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            Literal literal = (Literal)editItem["SupplierID"].Controls[1];
            if(literal.Text=="")
             editItem["SupplierID"].Text = " ";
        }

    }

Thanks
Shinu
