Radgrid inside EditFormSettings

[dennis]

i Have a radgrid (rad1)  inside a FormTemplate of another RadGrid (rad2).

If i update a row in (rad1) while (rad2) is in editmode, the (rad1) UpdateCommand get only empty values. ,


how i can do it????

UPDATE: i found that this happen because NeedDataSource of (rad1) is beign called before UpdateCommand,
this doesnt happens if the radgrid is not inside of another RadGrid.

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" GridLines="None" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
        Skin="WebBlue" OnInsertCommand="RadGrid1_InsertCommand" OnItemDataBound="RadGrid1_ItemDataBound">

Hello, I want to find radgrid which is inside the editformsetting using c# in needdatasource of inner radgrid. Please help me.

[Princy]

Hi Kalpna,

The NeedDataSource event is too early to get reference of the controls inside the RadGrid edit form. You can access the controls in ItemDataBound or ItemCreated event. Please have a look into this documentation to know more about the RadGrid Event Sequence. Please check the following I tried to access an item in the ItemDataBound event.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
    {
        GridEditableItem EditItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
        //access the RadGrid Here
    }
}

Thanks,
Princy.

Like that it flows. On click on edit in rad1, in the rad1_ItemDataBound, divRad2 is made visible and rad2 is bound and shown. Another edit on rad2, followed the same way... in the rad2_ItemDataBound, divRad3 is made visible and rad3 is getting bound, but it is not getting displayed. After rad2_ItemDataBound, rad3 bounds while debugging, but the grid rad1 gets collapsed, it is not even showing rad2. Please help with a ay solving this.
