[Solved] RadGrid multi row select values

[Quintin]

I've got a grid where multiple rows can be selected. Once the user has selected the information on the grid, I need to cycle through all the selected items to get the datakeys values.

Tried the following in the button event

cId = RadGrid1.SelectedItems(0).OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues(RadGrid1.SelectedItems(0).ItemIndex)("CompilationId")

 which returns no data (expecting a Guid)

however, doing the following does return a value

cId = RadGrid1.SelectedValues("CompilationId")

But that only works for a single row selection. What I am trying to do is similar to the following

'Get number of selected items
selectedItems = RadGrid1.SelectedItems.Count -1

'Get value of DataKey for each selected row
For i As Integer = 0 To selectedItems
    cId = RadGrid1.SelectedItems(i).OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues(RadGrid1.SelectedItems(i).ItemIndex)("CompilationId")
    'update the information
    'loop or exit
Next

Something like that... could anyone help (a little time senitive).

Thanks

Hi,

Please try the code snippet below to access the Selected Items and their corresponding Datakey values as shown below:

C#

  protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)
        {
          string selectedValue=   dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("CategoryName").ToString();
        }
    }

Thanks,

Princy

Thank you! Yes. Perfectly and a much simpler construct than the online example
 Here's VB version:

For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RadGrid1.SelectedItems
                    compilationId  = dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("CompilationId")
                Next

 BTW... compilationId (declared prior to this block) in the above example is a Guid, for string, as per C# example, add the .toString
