selected row and FindControl with grid

[Anjali]

Hello Everyone,
I am binding the Grid inside a loadHeader method and inside that method, I need to call an event called raIseChangedEvent. Inside raiseChangedEvenet, I need to find the label control inside the gridview and get the value of it. I am not sure how to do this. I did this long time ago  using asp grid, but here with radGrid, I don't know how to do this. below is my code

public loadHeader()
{

    RadGrid_Header.DataSource = HeaderList;
         RadGrid_Header.DataBind();
         RaiseChangedEvent();

}

 

    protected void RaiseChangedEvent()
    {
       // This is what i did with asp.net gridview
         grd_view_tracking.SelectedIndex = 0;
        GridViewRow selected_row = grd_view_tracking.SelectedRow;
        string job_seq_text_val = ((Label)selected_row.FindControl("lbl_job_seq")).Text;

      

    }

How can I get the value of job_seq_text_val  in RadGrid.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hello Nitu,

You can access the selected row items as shown below.
C#:

foreach(GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.SelectedItems)//loops through selected row
   {
      Label lbl=(Label) item.FindControl("Label1");
   }

Also take a look at the following documentation.
Accessing cells and rows

Thanks,
Shinu.

Thanks for your reply, thats what I needed, but somehow when I am debugging my program, i am not going inside the loop. below is my code

 

 

foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid_RepHeader.SelectedItems)

 

 

{

 

    RepId = ((

 

Label)item.FindControl("lbl_Rep_Id")).Text;

 

 

}

and this is the label inside the radGrid.

 

 

 

 

 

<asp:Label ID="lbl_Rep_Id" runat="server" Visible="true" Text='<%#Bind("repId") %>'></asp:Label>

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Nitu,

When you are selecting row from client side, it won't persist after PostBack. You can  try the following approach to persist the selected row, which is selected from client side. Please review the following help article.
Persisting the selected rows client-side on sorting/paging/filtering/grouping.

Another approach is selecting the row from server side, add GridButtonColumn columns to a grid to handle the selection and deselection. This  can be done by setting the CommandName property of the GridButtonColumn.
