Hi Abdul,

Generally SelectedItems is a collection of GridDataItem and you can index this type by column UniqueName. Here is an example for SelectedIndexChanged event:

foreach(GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)
{
    foreach(GridColumn column in item.OwnerTableView.RenderColumns)
    {
       Response.Write(String.Format("{0} : {1} <br />", column.UniqueName, item[column.UniqueName].Text));
    }
}

All the best,

Hello Abdul,

Try accessing the cells in the selected row using the UniqueName property of columns as shown below.
cs:
 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e) 
    { 
        foreach(GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.Items) 
        { 
           if (dataItem.Selected) 
            { 
                string strtxt = dataItem["categorydescription"].Text; 
            } 
        } 

Thanks
Princy.

Hello Abdul,

The rows in a Grid are accessed as GridDataItems. To access the cells as such in these rows you have to use the UniqueName property of the column.
aspx:
<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="categorydescription" EmptyDataText="&amp;nbsp;" HeaderText="Description" SortExpression="categorydescription" UniqueName="categorydescription"</telerik:GridBoundColumn> 

Now to access a cell in the row which was selected you can use the UniqueName property of  the column as shown.
vb:
Protected Sub RadGrid1_PreRender(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) 
     ' to access each row in RadGrid1 
    For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RadGrid1.Items 
         If dataItem.Selected Then 
           ' use the column UniqueName (categorydescription ) to access the cell and get its Text 
           Dim strtxt As String = dataItem("categorydescription").Text 
         End If 
    Next 
End Sub 
 

You can also use the DataKeyName property of the grid to retrieve the cell text.
aspx:
<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >         
   <MasterTableView DataKeyNames="FirstName"
      .... 

vb:
Protected Sub RadGrid1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) 
    For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RadGrid1.Items 
        ' To get the DataKey(GetDataKeyValue for RadGrid is similar to SelectedDataKey for Asp.Net GridView) 
               Dim strtxt As String = dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("Name").ToString() 
 
                 ' custom data binding code goes here    
    Next 
End Sub 

Thanks
Princy.

Hi,  following your post about getting the cell values, I have a grid where some of the columns are data bound to a list, some are itemtemplate columns that have a dropdownlist in them and I would like to retrieve the value of the selected item in the dropdownlist for each selected row.  I am using a GridClientSelectColumn to select the rows and for each selected row I choose a value in the dropdownlist.  The grid never goes into edit mode although the dropdownlists are editable at all times.

My question is can I access the dropdownlist for the selected row through the unique name for that colum and the SelectedItems property of the RadGrid as in:

 
foreach (GridDataItem dataitem in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)
{  
DropDownList ddlRelation1 = (DropDownList)dataitem["RelationtoClientColumn"].Controls[0];   

 

 

 

If not how can I access the dropdownlist values for each selected row?

Hi Jonathan,

Yes it is possible to access the DropDownList as you have mentioned above. For that you need to set the AutoPostBack property of the DropDownList to true. You can access the DropDownList in the ItemTemplate of a GridTemplateColumn using its ControlID. Here is the code I tried on my end.

ASPX:
<telerik:GridTemplateColumn    HeaderText="TempCol"  DataField="EndDate"  UniqueName="TempCol" > 
  
  <ItemTemplate> 
      <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1"  AutoPostBack="true" runat="server"
       <asp:ListItem Text="Asia" ></asp:ListItem> 
        <asp:ListItem Text="Europe" ></asp:ListItem> 
         <asp:ListItem Text="Africa" ></asp:ListItem> 
      </asp:DropDownList> 
  </ItemTemplate> 
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn> 


CS:
   protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e) 
    { 
       foreach (GridDataItem dataitem in RadGrid1.SelectedItems) 
        { 
 
            DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList)dataitem["TempCol"].FindControl("DropDownList1"); 
                string selectedText = ddl.SelectedItem.Text; 
             
        } 
    } 
 


Thanks

Hi Princy,

I tried the same piece of code for retrieving data from the selected row of the RadGrid but Its not working, I doubt on the grid_PreRender event because after selecting the row on the grid there seems no action.

Is there any other event that I try for?

Please help me ASAP.


Thanks,
Ram

Hello Ramachandran,

The code given above to retrieve data from selected rows will work only if the rows are initially selected or on normal postbacks but if you want to retrieve data from a row on selecting it, then you have to set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property to true for the grid as shown below which will help fire the PreRender or SelectedIndexChanged events of the grid on selecting a row.
aspx:
<telerik:RadGrid  ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" OnPreRender="RadGrid1_PreRender"  OnSelectedIndexChanged="RadGrid1_SelectedIndexChanged" >          
   <MasterTableView>        
   </MasterTableView>         
      <ClientSettings  EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true">          
      </ClientSettings> 
</telerik:RadGrid> 

Thanks
Princy.
