Writing to a textbox control inside a template

[Roland]

Hello,
 I have a telerik grid on my page that is populated using using textboxes in a template setup.

See code bleow:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Cash On Hand" UniqueName="cashonhand2">

 

<ItemTemplate>

 

<telerik:RadTextBox runat="server" ID ="txtTemplateCashOnHand" Text = ''></telerik:RadTextBox>

 

 

</ItemTemplate>

 

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

 

 

 

ISSUE:
From the code behind in the grid_ItemDataBound event handler, I want to access each textbox(there are 5 in a Row) and write data to the

txtTemplateCashOnHand control.
Any assistance will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

I hope you are using 5 TemplateColumns with a RadTextBox in each column's ItemTemplate. You can therefore use the UniqueName property for the column and FindControl method to access the controls in the ItemTemplate of the various columns.
Check out the code below to understand better:
cs:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            RadTextBox rdtxtbx = (RadTextBox)dataItem["cashonhand2"].FindControl("txtTemplateCashOnHand");
            rdtxtbx.Text = "Custom Text";
            // Similarly you can access RadTextBox controls in other columns
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
