ReadOnly Boundcolumn

[Tina]

Is that possible to make a boundcolumn readonly in edit mode and user should be able to insert new record to that field?

Hi Tina,

Try the following code snippet to make a GridBoundColumn readonly in edit mode.

C#:

protected void radgrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted && e.Item is GridEditFormInsertItem) //item is about to be inserted
        {
            GridEditFormInsertItem insertItem = (GridEditFormInsertItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txt = (TextBox)insertItem["UniqueName"].Controls[0];
            txt.ReadOnly = false;
        }
        if (!(e.Item is GridEditFormInsertItem) && e.Item.IsInEditMode)   //item is about to be edit
        {
            GridEditFormItem editItem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txt = (TextBox)editItem["UniqueName"].Controls[0];
            txt.ReadOnly = true;
        }
    }

Thanks,
Princy.
