Telerik.Web.UI.GridClientDeleteColumn

A special type of GridButtonColumn, including a delete buttons in each row. It provides the functionality of erasing records client-side, without making a round trip to the server.

Remarks

This optimizes the performance and the source data is automatically refreshed on the subsequent post to the server. The user experience is improved because the delete action is done client-side and the table presentation is updated immediately.Its ConfirmTextproperty can be assigned like with the default GridButtonColumn showing a dialog which allows the user to cancel the action.

EditFormColumnIndex `Int32`

Specifies the vertical collumn number where this column will appear when using EditForms editing mode and the form is autogenerated. See the remarks for details.

Remarks

A practicle example of using this property is to deterimine the number of columns rendered in the edit form. If there will be only one column in the rendered edit form, when we retrieve the value of this property for a column, as shown in the code below:protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e) {int columnIndex = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns[3].EditFormColumnIndex; }it will be equal to 0, meaning the the column belongs to the first group of columns in the edit form.
