Hello Prathap,

In order to achieve this, in Button_Click event of sendemail button loop through each grid item and find all the selected CheckBox and corresponding email id of selected employees. Check out the following sample code .

ASPX:


<Columns>
.........
<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="CkhSelect" HeaderText="Select">
  <ItemTemplate>
    <asp:CheckBox ID="chkbxselect" runat="server" />
  </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="UserMailID" HeaderText="MailId" UniqueName="MailID">
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>
.......
</Columns>

<asp:Button ID="BtnSendMail" runat="server" onclick="Button5_Click" Text="SendMail" />

C#:

protected void BtnSendMail_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       foreach(GridDataItem  item in RadGrid1.Items) //loop through each grid item
       {
           CheckBox chkSelected = (CheckBox)item.FindControl("chkbxselect");
           if (chkSelected.Checked)
           {
               string mail = item["MailID"].Text; // accessing email id of each selected employees

           }
    }

Hope this helps,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

I gave your code a try and for some reason it always returns false for my checkboxes, any ideas?

This is my grid:

<telerik:radgrid id="grdLeadList" runat="server" autogeneratecolumns="false" allowpaging="True"
    allowsorting="True" pagesize="5" allowautomaticupdates="true" gridlines="None"
    allowmultirowselection="true" onitemcommand="grdLeadList_ItemCommand" DataKeyNames="opportunityid" style="float: left; width: 965px;">
<ExportSettings HideStructureColumns="true" >
    <Excel Format="ExcelML" />
    <Csv ColumnDelimiter="Comma" RowDelimiter="NewLine" />
    <Pdf />
</ExportSettings>
<PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevNumericAndAdvanced" />
<MasterTableView Width="100%" TableLayout="Auto"  >
    <CommandItemSettings ShowExportToExcelButton="false" ShowExportToCsvButton="false" ShowExportToPdfButton="false" ShowAddNewRecordButton="false" />
    <Columns>
        <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="CkhSelect" HeaderText="Select">
          <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:CheckBox ID="chkbxselect" runat="server" />
          </ItemTemplate>
        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        <telerik:GridEditCommandColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" UpdateText="Update" CancelText="Cancel" EditText="Edit" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="CustomerId" HeaderText="Company Name" SortExpression="CompanyName" UniqueName="CompanyName" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Priority" HeaderText="Priority" SortExpression="Priority" UniqueName="Priority" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Eval" HeaderText="Eval" SortExpression="Eval" UniqueName="Eval" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="ContactName" HeaderText="Contact Name" SortExpression="ContactName" UniqueName="ContactName" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Source" HeaderText="Source" SortExpression="Source" UniqueName="Source" />
        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="State" HeaderText="State" SortExpression="State" UniqueName="State" />
        <telerik:GridNumericColumn DataField="Zip" HeaderText="Zip" SortExpression="Zip" UniqueName="Zip" />
        <telerik:GridDateTimeColumn DataField="CreatedOn" DataFormatString="{0:MM/dd/yy}" HeaderText="Creation Date" SortExpression="CreationDate" UniqueName="CreationDate" />
    </Columns>
    <EditFormSettings UserControlName="LeadShareEditPanel.ascx" EditFormType="WebUserControl">
        <EditColumn UniqueName="EditCommandColumn1" />
    </EditFormSettings>
</MasterTableView>
<ClientSettings EnableRowHoverStyle="false" >
    <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True"  />
</ClientSettings>
</telerik:radgrid>

and this is my code behind:

 protected void imgBtnSendRecords_Click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)

 {

     string mail = "";

 

     foreach (GridDataItem item in grdLeadList.Items) //loop through each grid item

     {

         CheckBox chkSelected = (CheckBox)item.FindControl("chkbxselect");

         if (chkSelected.Checked == false)

         {

             mail = mail + item["Priority"].Text + " ";

 

         }

     }
}

Thanks!

Hello Justin,

Check the condition likeif (chkSelected.Checked)  which is true on checking  the Checkbox.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Thanks for the reply!

I got it working by moving it to OnInit and it works good. The only problem is the checkboxes don't clear after the Send button is clicked. Anyway around that?

Thanks!
