Hi,

I'm new to the grid control/asp.net programming and need this solution rather urgently, help is appreciated.

I'm creating a link URL in my table but only want the field to have a hotlink if it is active, else show data and no hotlink.

how do i do this?

the item template is:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Right" HeaderText="Matches"

DataField="Matches">

<a href="<%#Eval("MatchesURL") %>" class="blueLink" style="font-weight:bold;">

<%#Eval("Matches")%>

</a>

</div>

</ItemTemplate>

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Hello Austinguy,

I guess you want to set the link as active/inactive based on cell value of corresponding row. You can access theHtmlAnchor control in code behind and set the HRef property to false in order to set as inactive.

C#:

    
                protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
 
                {
 
                    if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
 
                    {
 
                        GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
 
                        HtmlAnchor hlnk = (HtmlAnchor)item.FindControl("hLink");
 
                        // Check for condition 
 
                        if (item["ID"].Text == "ID1")
 
                            hlnk.HRef = "";
 
                    } 
 
                }

Note: Also add id="hLink" and add runat="server" to anchor (in aspx) in order to access the control on server.
