I don’t know if anyone is still responding to this post; I certainly hope so. I tried using this code to edit clien record with 7 rows.

The first row is edited and updated successfully.

Subsequent rows don’t update.

Does anyone know what has to change in the code for this to happen?

Without this added code, the edit and update work pretty good.

Hoping to hear from someone.

Thanks alot in advance.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Carl, your solution doesn’t seem to work because the GridView count is still off.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks!

I have a bit of a complicated structure with a user control containing the grid being added to a ajaxToolkit TabContainer in an other user control. And due to a bug (I believe) in the TabContainer control, I have to databind the grid during the init event of the tabcontainer, and not during the pageload event. I think this would be the reason that the rows are never rendered.

Databinding the gridview on pageload will not work with the tab control. You wouldn’t have a workaround to suggest for this, would you?

Protected Sub GridView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewRowEventArgs)
‘ this will add a row header every time the itemgroup changes!
If (e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow) Then
Dim drv As DataRowView = CType(e.Row.DataItem, DataRowView)
If (tmpItemGroup drv(”Itemgroup”).ToString) Then
tmpItemGroup = drv(”ItemGroup”)
Dim tbl As Table = CType(e.Row.Parent, Table)
Dim row As GridViewRow = New GridViewRow(-1, -1, DataControlRowType.DataRow, DataControlRowState.Normal)
Dim cell As TableCell = New TableCell()
cell.ColumnSpan = sender.Columns.Count
cell.Width = Unit.Percentage(100)
cell.Style.Add(”font-weight”, “bold”)
Dim span As HtmlGenericControl = New HtmlGenericControl(”span”)
span.InnerHtml = tmpItemGroup
cell.Controls.Add(span)
row.Cells.Add(cell)
tbl.Rows.AddAt(tbl.Rows.Count - 1, row)
End If
End If
End Sub

Thanks

In Btnedit_Command(), you’re saving the value of e.CommandArgument into IdStr, however, in your aspx page, you’re not setting the value of the CommandArgument property, unless that’s being done in the DataBound.

<asp:HiddenField ID=”Hidparentid” runat=”server” Value=” />

<asp:LinkButton ID=”LBEdit” Text=” runat=”server” CommandArgument=” OnCommand=”Btnedit_Command” >

<%–
<a id=”A1″ href=”javascript:fnEdit(”);” runat=”server”> <asp:Label runat=”server” ID=”LblName” Text=”>
–%>

<asp:Label ID=”Lblaccount” text=” runat=”server”>

 <asp:Label ID=”lblJob” runat=”server” Text=”>

<asp:TextBox ID=”hidAmount” runat=”server” Text=” />
<asp:HiddenField ID=”hidAccType” runat=”server” Value=” />
<asp:TextBox ID=”hidmemo” runat=”server” Text=”>

in .cs file

protected void Btnedit_Command(object sender, CommandEventArgs e)
{
try
{
String IdStr = System.Convert.ToString(e.CommandArgument);
Response.Cookies["purchaseid"].Value = IdStr;
Response.Redirect(”purchases.aspx”);
}
}

If I just let the postback run through, the grid redraws without the new rows (which I guess makes sense because they were drawn after the databind which is only done if not a postback in the page load). Where the new rows were originally added, there is no data–that is, the data remained in the original row positions, but some of the data I entered in fields moved up. Kinda messy, and I’m not sure how to work around this yet.

What if you did something like the following:

for (int i = 0; i < gvTests.Rows.Count; i++)
{
if(gvTests.Rows[i].RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
TextBox txtQty = (TextBox)gvTests.Rows[i].FindControl(”txtQuantity”);

if(txtQty != null)
{
// Do something with txtQty
}
}
}

The only difference, is that you check to see if the txtQty is null or not. When you get to a Sub Header row, the Textbox doesn’t exist, so it’ll be null.
