WebUserControl receive null DataItem

[Hugues]

We have a RadGrid with an EditFormType of WebUserControl.

The problem is that the DataItem property is set to the correct element only on first selection. If, on save, validation error occurs and the form is redisplayed, the value passed to the DataItem is null.

What can we do wrong? Is there something specific to set to always get the correct element on each "postback"?

Thanks,

Hugues

Hi,

Have you defined the DataItem property in the user control code-behind you are using for edit?

CS:

public object DataItem
{
  get
  {
    return this._dataItem;
  }
  set
  {
    this._dataItem = value;
  }
}

Princy.

Yes, the property is defined exactly as shown.

I am having the same problem losing the value of the DataItem.  Any Ideas?

Hello AdventurGurl,

Can you share a sample code which we can test? Or elaborate a bit on your scenario. For instance when are you trying to get the DataItem object?

All the best,
