Does anyone know how to FindControl in the GridTemplateColumn in a RadGrid. I can get it to find it find in EditForm. But it can't seem to find it in the GridTemplateColumn. I am trying to do this in the ItemDataBound event. The if statement never becomes true and never gets into to FindControl.
This is what I am trying:
if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
{
GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
DropDownList ddlAccountLookup = (DropDownList)item["Account"].FindControl("ddlAccountLookup");
}
Thanks!

Telerik's support website shows exactly the same way you are doing it:
I suggest that you put a break point on
item["Account"]
and do a watch to inspect what controls are contained inside it.
