Hello all,

I am trying to work with the RadGrid control to have both edit and detail views.  The feel I am looking for is like the following example:

http://www.telerik.com/demos/aspnet/Grid/Examples/Programming/WebGrid/DefaultCS.aspx

which includes and in-form edit view.  I have modified this example successfully to work with my data, and am starting to understand it.  What I'd like to do is to also have a "detail" link for each record and display a similar in-form view but with read only labels.

I hope I am clear in what I am trying to accomplish.  Could someone please help push me in the right direction?

Thanks,
John Reynolds

Hello John,

You can achieve the required scenario using the NestedViewTemplate.Refer to the below given link which demonstrates how to  set a NestedViewTemplate within the Grid.

Thank you for your response.  Looking at the sample, it is not clear to me how you can use a detail template AND an edit form in the same grid.

Ok, I figured out how to have both the nested template and the edit form on the same grid.  However, I now have another related issue.

How do I make sure only one is visible at a time?  Currently if I click the edit link, the edit form shows up, but if I then click the little plus sign to expand the detail, the edit form is still visible.  I would like only one of the to show at a time.

Any ideas?

thanks,

John

Hi John,

You can try the following code snippet to clear the edit forms in a Grid on clicking the expand/collapse button.

CS:
 protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e) 
    { 
        if (e.CommandName == "ExpandCollapse") 
        { 
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ClearEditItems(); 
        } 
    } 

Regards
Princy.
