[Solved] Retaining selected row on grid after insert/update modal popup

[Luke]

Hello, one of the requirements for my company's product is that when a user has a row selected in the radgrid, but then does an insert or update via add new record command or the edit button in the edit column, that row remains selected when the modal popup closes.  

I haven't seen any solutions for this in the forums or by web search.  We are utilizing a RadAjaxPanel if that's relevant.  Is there a straightforward way to solve this?

Hi Luke,

You need to save the selected items in a collection variable and use it when necessary:

or

Here is a sample implementation:

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Thank you very much for your reply.  The server side solution should be appropriate in my case as we need to maintain these across pages in one particular situation, so I might as well solve both problems at once.

Have a great day!
