row number as a column.

[Joslyn]

Hi
 how to add row number as a column.

[Shinu]

Hi Joslyn,

Please try the following code snippet to set row number.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn" HeaderText="Row number">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="numberLabel" runat="server" Width="30px" />
    </ItemTemplate>
    <HeaderStyle Width="30px" />
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridDataItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.DataSourceID == "SqlDataSource1")
    {
        Label lbl = e.Item.FindControl("numberLabel") as Label;
        lbl.Text = (e.Item.ItemIndex + 1).ToString();
    }
}

Thanks,
Shinu

Hi Joslyn,

In addition to Shinu's approach you could also achieve this entirely in the markup with the following GridTemplateColumn:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn" HeaderText="Row">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="numberLabel" runat="server" Width="30px" Text='<%# (Container as GridItem).ItemIndex + 1 %>' />
    </ItemTemplate>
    <HeaderStyle Width="30px" />
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Hope that  helps.
