show different columns when editing a row

[John]

I have a grid with 4 columns in it.  when the user want's to add a new or edit an existing row though i need to show about 10 columns for entry.  Is this possible?  if so, how do i accomplish that?

Thanks!

[John]

anyone have any ideas?  this is a requirement for my project, if the grid won't do this i'll have to use something else.

Thanks!

Perhaps setting the additional columns IsVisible property to True in the GridViewRowInfo.OnBeginEdit event handler will give you the functionality you require.

Hi John,

Perhaps you can use the approach demonstrated in the following Knowledge Base article for your scenario: http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/winforms/gridview/create-pop-up-user-control-for-row-editing.aspx? If not, please provide me with exact details how do you expect such a functionality to work and I will help you achieve it.

Thanks Stephan, that looks like it'll work for me.  in the example there's a button that pops the user control out.  is there a way to do it when clicking on the standard add new row that the grid puts there for you?

Thanks!

Hi John,

Thank you for writing back.

I have slightly changed the example to show the custom cell for all new row cells and when you click the save button to add a new row with the added data. Please refer to that attachment.

Let me know how this works for you.
