Switching User Controls inside a RadGrid

[Ben]

We've got a table of (physical) components and we're displaying some of their data in a RadGrid.  When a user wants to edit a row, we want to display a user control particular to the type of component on that row.  Can the UserControl property be changed at runtime?

Hi Ben,

Give a try with the following code snippet to switcn the UserControl according to content in a Grid row.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
           GridDataItem item=(GridDataItem)e.Item;
           string strTxt=item["ProductName"].Text;

            if(strTxt=="Tea")
                item.OwnerTableView.EditFormSettings.UserControlName = "WebUserControl.ascx";
            else if(strTxt=="Coffee")
                 item.OwnerTableView.EditFormSettings.UserControlName = "WebUserControl2.ascx";
        }


    }

Thanks
