Select All Rows

[Mitul]

Hi All,

My client requires that instead of clicking on the checkbox above, there be a button which reads "select all" at a different place on the page, by which the user can select all the rows of the radgrid. Similarly another button to clear all selections. Is there a way in whcih i can do this? I could not find anything on the forums so far.

Cheers,
M

Hi Mitul,

Thank you for contacting us and for your question.

You can try the following snippet for selecting/ deselecting all rows in RadGrid

       <script type="text/javascript">
            function deSelectAllRows()
            {
                var masterTable = $find("<%= RadGrid1.ClientID %>").get_masterTableView();
                masterTable.clearSelectedItems();

                return false;
            }

            function selectAllRows()
            {
                var masterTable = $find("<%= RadGrid1.ClientID %>").get_masterTableView();

                masterTable.clearSelectedItems();
                for(var i =0;i<masterTable.get_dataItems().length;i++)
                    masterTable.selectItem(masterTable.get_dataItems()[i].get_element());

                return false;
            }
        </script>

Also make sure that AllowMultiRowSelection="true" and

<ClientSettings>
 <Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" />
</ClientSettings>
