C# – telerik radgrid selecting item after inserting

asp.netcnettelerik

Im programatically changing dataSource of the grid by inserting item to the list. Then I do Rebind on the RadGrid. Ive got an id of newly inserted object. Then I would like select this row in grid. How can I do this from code behind ?

thanks for help

You have to set the ID as a DataKeyNames="yourID" for your grid. Then you can retrieve it in the code behind and set it selected like this:

GridDataItem gdiItem = RarGrid1.MasterTableView.FindItemByKeyValue("yourID", yourIDValue);
gdiItem.Selected = true;

RadGrid losing track of current Edit Item after insert operation on DataSource

If you rebind the datasource, everything will be reset. You will need to keep track of the current 'edit' item, and 're-activate' it after your rebound the datasource.

One way is to disable paging, then make a Rebind, then iterate through all the items, find the page the item should be in and then enable paging. The other way is to make separate Rebind per page, like this:

int count = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.PageCount;  
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) 
{ 
    RadGrid1.CurrentPageIndex = i; 
    RadGrid1.Rebind();

    foreach (GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.Items) 
    { 
        var yourID = dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("YourID"); 
        if (yourID == insertedItemID)
           break;
    }  
}     
RadGrid1.Rebind();
