Read Value of CommandItemTemplate CheckBox

[Perry]

I have a RadGrid with the following CommandItemTemplate items

<asp:Button ID="Diagram" Text="Diagram" runat="server" OnClick="DiagramClicked"></asp:Button>
<asp:CheckBox ID="OrphanCheck" Text="Exclude Orphans" runat="server"/>

When the user clicks the Diagram button, using C#  I want to read the value of the Checkbox and build the needed code based on the value of the check box.  How can I get the value of that checkbox.  I have searched for a solution but all I can find is dealing with a checkbox in a column or row.

 

Thanks

Perry

Hello Perry,

To get reference to the CheckBox control you can use the NamingContainer of the Button control and use the FindControl method with the ID of the CheckBox:

protected void Diagram_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    bool checkBoxChecked = ((sender as Button).NamingContainer.FindControl("OrphanCheck") as CheckBox).Checked;
}

Hope this helps.
