Radgrid with Insert and no Update.

[Swapna M]

Hi,
    I have a Radgrid where I have set 

AllowAutomaticUpdates

 

="false" and 

 

AllowAutomaticInserts

 

="True" and

<

 

telerik:GridEditCommandColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" UniqueName="EditCommandColumn">

 

 

<ItemStyle CssClass="MyImageButton" />

 

 

</telerik:GridEditCommandColumn>

 

as first column of the Grid.

    Even though i have set AllowAutomaticUpdates="false",  I am getting GridEditColumn with Edit Icon.
How to get rid of Edit Icon and have only Insert Operation.


Thanks.

Hello Swapna,

When we set AllowAutomaticUpdates to True, the DataSource is updated automatically when binding the grid to a declarative data source using the DataSourceID property of the grid. This doesn't mean setting Edit button's visibility in grid.

If you want to hide the EditColumn, then just remove GridEditCommandColumn from the column collection.

Hi Shinu,
        Thanks for your quick reply.

        If I remove the EditCommandColumn, ok and cancel buttons are not displayed for Insert Operation.
Please refer the attached screenshots.

Hello Swapna,

Try the following approach in order to show buttons for insert form only and not for edit form.

C#:

    protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {

        if (e.Item is GridHeaderItem)
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("EditCommandColumn").Display = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted;
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && !e.Item.IsInEditMode)
            (e.Item as GridEditableItem)["EditCommandColumn"].Controls[0].Visible = false;
    }

Regards,

Shinu.
