Select Inserted/Updated row after performing command

[Ronnie]

Hello,

I have a grid and the Insert/Update/Delete events are handled in the 'ItemCommand' event.
I'm now trying to get the dataItem row that was updated/inserted so that I can select it and then change it's BackColor.

Here is what I have now in the ItemCommand  Event:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)

{

   if ((e.CommandName == RadGrid.PerformInsertCommandName) || (e.CommandName == RadGrid.UpdateCommandName))

   {

      GridEditableItem saveableItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;

      SaveItems(saveableItem, e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted);
   }


}

I trying to do something like:  saveableItem.Selected = true;
but this way won't work because it's the editableItem vs the dataItem.

So my questions:
- Is this the right event to handle this?  If not, what event should I call to handle this (from ItemCommand if possible)?
- How do I 'get' the inserted/updated item, so that I can 'do something' (Select, change BackColor, add Border, etc. after the action)?

Thank you in advance,
Ronnie

Hello Ronnie,

Please try using the approach from the Select Last Inserted Row in the RadGrid with both Paging and Sorting enabled code library in order to implement the desired functionality.

I hope this helps.

Hello Miguel,

Here is the link which shows how to select last inserted row.
Select Last Inserted Row in the RadGrid with both Paging and Sorting enabled.

And try the following code snippet to select the last updated row.

C#:

int rowindex = -1;
 protected void RadGrid1_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
 {
     GridEditFormItem editItem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
     rowindex = editItem.ItemIndex;
 }
 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
     if (rowindex > -1)
     {
         GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)RadGrid1.Items[rowindex];
         item.Selected = true;
         rowindex = -1;
     }
 }

Thanks,
Princy.

I have paging and sorting enable on my grid - Also, We are using Radwindow popup for Add/update. 

We wanted to highlight Add/Update row to parent window after child window is close.  What can we use?

Hi,

You can attach CommandName to the edit button and access the index in the ItemCommand event and set the row selected. In case of add new record, it will be added to the end of the page, you can access it and set it selected.

C#:

protected void SampleGrid_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
     //Edit
    if (e.CommandName == "EditRow")
    {
        GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
        int index = dataItem.ItemIndex;
        dataItem.Selected = true;
    }
      //Add new button in CommandItemTemplate
    if (e.CommandName == "AddNew")
    {
        GridCommandItem cmdItem = (GridCommandItem)e.Item;
        int count = SampleGrid.Items.Count;
       //Set the last row selected
        SampleGrid.MasterTableView.Items[count - 1].Selected = true;
    }
}

Thanks,
Princy

Hi,
This link is not working anymore, where can I find it ?
Thanks.

Hi Laurent,

This requirement may be somewhat tricky. You will need to find a way to determine the page and the position of the newly inserted record. You can also do that by removing paging temporarily to get the item, however, it requires 2 consequent rebinds, which is not performance friendly. I suggest that you access the database position of the new item using some server-side insert operation event handler depending on your datasource type. Then, you can make some calculations to determine on which page the newly inserted item is located on and go to that page. For instance, if you are using SQL, you can use the approach demonstrated in the attached web site.

Hope this helps.

How can i select an item using the Id of updated item 

[Eyup]

Hello Keletso,

You will first need to access the item. Then, you can set its Selected property to true on server-side. Alternatively, you can use one of the following methods on client-side:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/client-side-programming/gridtableview-object/methods/selectitem
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/client-side-programming/griddataitem-object/properties/set_selected()

I hope this will prove helpful.
