[Solved] Set Template Control Values from Outside of Grid

[Marcus]

Within my project I have a Radgrid to collect a customers address. On Insert Mode a button appears by the postcode textbox which loads a RadWindow with a selection of addresses for the given postcode. I collect the value from the textbox with the following code:-

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemCommand(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemCommand

 

          Select Case e.CommandName

            Case "getValue"

 

                Dim rg_control As RadButton = TryCast(sender, RadButton)

 

                rg_control = DirectCast(e.CommandSource, RadButton)

 

                Dim postcode As String = DirectCast(rg_control.NamingContainer.FindControl("PostalCodeTextBox"), TextBox).Text()

 
                                             'LOAD RAD WINDOW

                      rw_findPostcode.VisibleOnPageLoad = True

           End Select

 

End Sub

Obviously the above is fine for collecting the value entered. Ok now the problem.

Within the RadWindow I have a RadListBox which displays the list of available addresses. On selection a selectedIndexChanged Event fires and returns the selected row. How do I fill the template within the RadGrid with the selected values.

Any ideas?

Hi Princy - As ever thanx for your quick reply,

The problem I have is that the selected address from the RadWindow needs to display in the RadGrid while in Edit Mode...

If I try and make my request more simple:-

Say I have a RadGrid and it displays in edit/insert mode. Also I have a button OUTSIDE the grid. If I click the button how do I enter something into the Edit Template textboxes? If I was using the ItemCommand I would use:-

Dim rg_control As RadButton = TryCast(sender, RadButton)

rg_control = DirectCast(e.CommandSource, RadButton)

DirectCast(rg_control.NamingContainer.FindControl("PostalCodeTextBox"), TextBox).Text() = "It Worked!!!"

How therefore do I do the same as above but from a Click Event generated from a button outside the grid.

Thanx for your help,

Marcus
