Template Column with GridDataItem

[Angella]

Hi all,

During the OnItemDataBound, I'm using the GridDataItem to retrieve values from the grid. I'm able to do this without the regular columns. The instructions for the Template column said:  For template columns you must find the control in the grid cell and extract its value.please give an example.

Following is the aspx code for the column :
 <telerik: GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Unloading Type" UniqueName="UnloadTypeColumn">
                        <ItemTemplate>
                                     <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.Dataitem, "_UnloadTypeName")%>
                        </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Thanks in advance.

Hello Angella,

Try accessing the value as shown below.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
{
  if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
 {
  GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
  string s = ((DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem)["UnloadTypeName"].ToString();}
 }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.
