[Solved] Select checkbox when textbox in grid clicked

[RB]

I have a radgrid with a checkbox column and textbox column as follows:

           this._RadGrid1.AllowFilteringByColumn = true;
            this._RadGrid1.AllowSorting = true;
            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.AllowNaturalSort = true;

            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = new string[] { this._PriceDealProductBanTable.PriceDealEntityProductItemIdColumn.ColumnName };
            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ClientDataKeyNames = new string[] { this._PriceDealProductBanTable.PriceDealEntityProductItemIdColumn.ColumnName };
            this._RadGrid1.EnableLinqExpressions = false;

            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.NoMasterRecordsText = "No Products found.";
            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Width = Unit.Percentage(100);

            this._RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = true;
            this._RadGrid1.AllowMultiRowSelection = true;


            this._RadGrid1.NeedDataSource += RadGrid1_NeedDataSource;
            this._RadGrid1.ItemDataBound += RadGrid1_ItemDataBound;

            GridBoundColumn boundColumn = new GridBoundColumn();
            string columnName;

            #region RadGrid Columns
            GridClientSelectColumn selectAll = new GridClientSelectColumn();
            selectAll.UniqueName = "SelectOne";
            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(selectAll);
//Other columns
            templateColumn = new GridTemplateColumn();
            templateColumnName = this._PriceDealProductBanTable.BillingAccountNumberColumn.ColumnName;
            this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(templateColumn);
            templateColumn.DataField = templateColumnName;
            templateColumn.ItemTemplate = new TextBoxTemplate(templateColumnName);
            templateColumn.HeaderText = "BAN";
            templateColumn.UniqueName = "BAN";
            templateColumn.AllowFiltering = false;

The textboxtemplate is as follows:

public class TextBoxTemplate : ITemplate
    {
        protected RadTextBox _textBox;
        string _columnName;
        public TextBoxTemplate(string columnName)
        {
            this._columnName = columnName;
        }
        public void InstantiateIn(System.Web.UI.Control container)
        {

            this._textBox = new RadTextBox();
            this._textBox.ID = this._columnName;
            container.Controls.Add(this._textBox);
            this._textBox.DataBinding += new EventHandler(_textBox_DataBinding);
        }
        void _textBox_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            RadTextBox txt = (RadTextBox)sender;
            GridDataItem container = (GridDataItem)txt.NamingContainer;
            txt.Text = ((DataRowView)container.DataItem)[this._columnName].ToString();
        }
    }

When I click on the textbox, I want the row to be automatically selected. How can I achieve this?
Also after selections are made, and i click on a row, all selections are disabled. I want to change this behaviour also. Deselect only happens when I click on the checkbox.

Hi,

You can attach an onfocus event to the TextBox and set the row selected and to select row using checkbox set the ClientSettings property UseClientSelectColumnOnly to true.

C#:

_RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = true;
_RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Selecting.UseClientSelectColumnOnly = true;
_RadGrid1.ItemCreated += new GridItemEventHandler(_RadGrid1_ItemCreated);

void _RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
  if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
  {
   GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
   RadTextBox txtSelect = (RadTextBox)dataItem.FindControl("TextBoxID");// pass the TextBox ID
   txtSelect.Attributes.Add("onfocus", "SelectRow('"+dataItem.ItemIndex+"','"+_RadGrid1.ClientID+"')");
  }
}

JS:

<script type="text/javascript">
  function SelectRow(index,grid) {
    var grid = $find(grid);
    var MasterTable = grid.get_masterTableView();
    MasterTable.get_dataItems()[index].set_selected("true");
   }
</script>

Thanks,
