Hello,
I am new to using Telerik Controls so I am open to the idea that I have not implemented it correctly but what I am trying to do is to update rows in a RadGrid using a template edit form.  This RadGrid is bound to an ArrayList which is stored in a session variable for passing the ArrayList variable to my BLL class to perform the a batch insert which will loop through each value in the ArrayList.  But before submitting the batch I need to first update each RadGrid Row, then update the ArrayList, and re-bind it to my session variable.

So, I created the RadGrid, and have it all working fine with the ArrayList but the problem I have is that I can't seem to raise the update event inside the editform using LinkButton or Regular Button which would then update the ArrayList with the selected values in the templated edit form.  I have tried to use the "GridEditCommandColumn" both as a templated column and autogen.  I tried adding an MS Button and MS LinkButton to the Template Edit Form and could not raise the event that way either.  I have read many many support docs and searched this forum but still confused because I haven't seen this scenario described in these docs.  I have tried flipping different properties on and off but can't make any progress.  Can someone please make a suggestion or explain how to fire the update event when pressing a button inside the edit form of a RadGrid?
Thank you in advance,
JW

Hello JW,

Here are some notes that I hope will prove helpful to you:

1. In order to use a tempated edit form you have to set the "EditMode" attribute of the MasterTableView to "EditForms".

2. For two way binding of templated colums, you have to used the "Bind" method, not the "Eval".

3. You don't need to specify an event handler for the link button in the templated edit form. So you should remove the "onclick="LinkBtn_Update_Click"" attribute from the tag. Since the CommandName of the button is set to "Update" it will automatically trigger an update operation. If you need to perform additional check and operations, intercept the ItemCommand event, check that the CommandName is "Update" and implement whatever extra business logic is necessary.

Hope this helps,
Regards,

Hello Tsvetoslav:
Thank you for your reply I appreciate your time.

I do have the edit mode set to "editform".   And for the two way binding, I only have a few labels set to "Eval" to display a readonly version of the data.  I didn't think that two-way binding against an arraylist would work which is why I didn't use "Bind".  But maybe I am wrong? 

I tried adding it back and I just get error messages.  Could you could explain why I get this error message when using "Bind":
"Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."

I had just added that onclick event to the button as part of my many attempts to get the darn button to fire the update event.  I have removed it now.

I did however, find the root cause problem to my update command not executing!  It was due to 3 Rad Spell Checkers I had placed on the last three multiline textboxes on the page (which were not inside the rad grid or related to the grid at all).  Once I removed all three - viola!  The update command on the radgrid would execute.  If other's are struggling with this same problem I would suggest removing any RadSpell's and see if that helps you out.

But now I have another problem....
Whenever I hit the update button, and the update command executes, and re-binds the arraylist to the radgrid I end up with only the one edited item in my arraylist and all the items/rows are just gone.  I am wondering if I need to either try the two-way binding or come up with a way to save the existing items in my RadGrid/arraylist (maybe it requires the use of a hashtable)? 
Any suggestions?


KanbanID = key value
Kanban  = key text value
RootCause_StOper 
LookBack
MissedBy_StOper
InspectionLBMissedBy_StOper
Scrapped
RootCause_StOper_Name
MissedBy_StOper_Name
InspectionLBMissedBy_StOper_Name

Here is a description the functionality of this page and the order of events:
The user enters a part number and clicks the "GO" button.
A checkbox list is populated with kanban numbers to select.  Upon checking or unchecking the checkboxlist items the funciton "Count_ALL_ListItems"  is called to build an arraylist named "rootcauseList_Array".  The key field is "KanbanID" which will be master list of reocords to be submitted as a batch insert to a defect tracking database.  The RadGrid that is causing me trouble, "RadGrid_RCinsert", which is meant to be the tool the for the person entering this batch of defect records to easily update the values for the rootcause fields in the "rootcauseList_Array".  This RadGrid is initialized with the selected kanbans id's and default values for the rest of the fields in the object named "objDefectRootCauseRec" used to build the "rootcauseList_Array" arraylist.  The RadGrid_RCinsert is set up to allow them to add more information about who or what really caused the defect during assembly of the unit which involves selecting values for the following template bound columns in the grid:
KanbanID = key value - not editable
Kanban  = key text value - not editable (for display only)
RootCause_StOper 
LookBack
MissedBy_StOper
InspectionLBMissedBy_StOper
Scrapped
RootCause_StOper_Name
MissedBy_StOper_Name
InspectionLBMissedBy_StOper_Name

Below is the entire Code-Behind so you know the "whole story" but the RadGrid I am speaking about is at the bottom of the page and is named "RadGrid_RCinsert".   I tried to also add the ASPX but there seemed to be a problem with a "long running script" and I could not submit it with this post.  Let me know if you need it and I can try posting it again later.

Hi JW,

You can review the following examples and documentation on radgrid's automatic operations with object data source:

- Automatic Operations with ObjectDataSrouce
- Automatic DataSource Operations
- Custom paging...using ObjectDataSource 

If this doesn't help, you can send a complete running application (along with any user controls, master pages and a database) through a formal support ticket.
