Update some fields with a GridDropDownColumn

[fecteaum]

I want to know is it's possible to changed the values of some textbox and dropdownlistbox fields when a select a value form an another dropdownlistbox in edit mode frorm a radgrid.

explanation: I have a grid containing a product number w(hich is a dropdownlistbox in edit mode), a description, mark, model unit_price (which they are textboxs) and Mesure_unit (which is a dropdownlistbox). 

If the client select a product number from the 1st dropdown i want to fill all the others fields with the value that i have in my database.

If the client don't select a product form de 1st dropdown they have to enter all the values for the others fields.

Is this possible

Thank you

Hi fecteaum,

This requirement can be implemented both on the client and on the server, by enabling AutoPostback for the first dropdown list. On the server, all you need to do is find your sibling controls by ID and set their properties:

void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DropDownList ddlist = sender as DropDownList;
    (ddlist.NamingContainer.FindControl("DropDownList2") as DropDownList).Items.Add("value");
    (ddlist.NamingContainer.FindControl("TextBox1") as TextBox).Text = "Some text";
    //...
}

To achieve the same on the client, you can choose an event from the first dropdown to attach to, similarly find the other controls and set their values.

Hi fecteaum,

You can also refer the following online demo which demonstrates a similar scenario in edit mode.
