Data Controls :: Find DropDownList Control In Listview EditItemTemplate?
Oct 21, 2012
I have a dropdown list within a listview 'EditItemTemplate' and 'InsertItemTemplate" which I am trying to populate from the database with code behind with ItetmDataBound event. Problem is I am getting NullException when I use this code which works fine for ItemTemplate.

if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow && (e.Row.RowState & DataControlRowState.Edit) == DataControlRowState.Edit && GridView1.EditIndex == e.Row.RowIndex) { DropDownList DStatusEdit = (DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("DStatusEdit"); string query = "select distinct status from directory"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query); DStatusEdit.DataSource = GetData(cmd);
[CODE]..
the page is running but when i click edit image button the dropdwn shows but no data in dropdown binded it is empty.
My gridview is inside update panel.
How can i achieve this?
Should dropdownlist in my case be binded inside rowcommand and how?
Now, what i want is that , when a user select something from any dropdownlist , a fuction should be called in which I can get column and row of that dropdownlist.
I can get the dropdownlist's id in that function along with row and column of dropdownlist.
I want to dynamically populate data in Dropdown box in the Edititemtemplate of the Listview. The below code is showing error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". The problem is in Findcontrol function. How to solve this.
I have a page where I use the ListView and DataPager.My listview is populated as a table where each row has a bit data a dropdownlist with some values and a link button. Now I am trying to pick out the selected value from dropdown list when I kick on my linkbutton. As long as I'm on page one, everything is woriking fine. But if I go to page three then I can not pick out the value I selected in the dropdownlist. I have tried to add a textbox in the listview and then I am able to get the value out I typed into the textbox independent which side I'm on.
Why can I pick out the value from textbox but not the selected value in dropownlist?
I want to pass the checked checkboxes value of my listview control to a second page so I can display the listview in this second page with only those selected records

i have a listview. The listview contains a usercontrol with ID="ucEquationBuilder1" which is added only! in the SelectedItemTemplate.I've came along some post which stated you can't find the control in the SelectedItemTemplate unless it is also in the the ItemTemplate.
To me this sounded ridiculous. Untill i ran some tests, and indeed i was able to find all other controls (TextBox's Labels) which where both inside the itemtemplate and the selecteditem template.
To me this is quite frustrating. Is there a way to retrieve the control which is only inside the SelectedItemTemplate without adding it to the itemtemplate?
I have a basic list view, in the edit mode I have a dropdown list, and a checkbox, I want it so that if you choose "yes" from the drop down box the check boxs becomes enabled. I know I need to find the control but I keep getting object refrence error with this code.

the listview renders its layout / item template fine but when I click on edit to send it to edit mode it fails to find the dropdownlist ddlQA1YNM which is a bit ironic cause its the ddlQA1YNM that is making the call to ddlQA1YNM_ondatabound. Now it could be with the fact its on the databound stage. Not sure how that plays into the stack. I call ondatabound to determine what the dropdownlist value is and set the enabled status according on the load into edit mode.

I have a dropdownlist embedded into an asp.net gridview. I have successfully populated the dropdown list in the footer but have not been able to populate the dropdownlist in the EditItemTemplate. Here is my code that works. I need to do the exact same thing for a dropdownlist embedded in the update functionality of the gridview.

I have a dropdownlist in EditItemTemplate and InsertItemTemplate which I want it to populate at the runtime while Inserting an item or Editing an item.
I am facing an issue regarding populating a dropdownlist dynamically while in Edit and Insert mode. There are 0 Records in my table and it shows "Empty Data message" in my Listview control. Even the ItemDataBound event does not fire. So I am not able to find the dropdownlist in that listview.
This is my Aspx code which shows only InsertItemTemplate and EditItemTemplate.
I have a gridview and it has two EditItemTemplates. I want to update the items inside the second dropdown (EditItemTemplate) when I select an item from the first dropdownlistbox (EditItemTemplate). I want to update dropdownlist2 when I select an item from dropdownlist1. How can I do this?

I'm attempting to load DropDownLists from the C# codebehind as the FormView switches modes to Edit and displays the EditItemTemplate. I present the data in a FormView ItemTemplate using text boxes. When the user selects Edit, I have been attempting to load the EditItemTemplate dropdownlists by creating a dataset and binding it to the control, without success.
I've successfully loaded them in previous projects from within the .aspx code using <asp:ListItem> and within the C# code behind using Control.Items.Add(new ListItem), which are essentially the same thing of course . This project is different in that I want to get the data from a stored procedure on a MSSQL server.
In my latest attempt, I can see the data in the datasets. I'm getting "Error connecting to database.'eitRace' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.Parameter name: value"
I include the code below. If someone could point me to an example I would be greatful. There has to be an elegant way of accomplishing this.
How to write code in vb.net to control the Dropdown which is inside FormView EditItemTemplate. FormView named "frmFaultsReg" DetailsView named "lstStatus" Actually what i want to do that there is a textbox inside FormView EditItemTemplate and ItemTemplate to insert Closing date. lstStatus has a value PENDING and CLOSED. If a user select CLOSED from lstStatus then the date textbox named "ClrDateTimeTextBox" should show current date time and to insert into database and if user again selects PENDING from lstStatus then the date textbox should show empty. I think the postback of lstStatus should work but lstStatus is inside the FormView thats why I am unable to hook it.
I have DataList control and I want to assign to it's edititemtemplate some User Control. The problem is I can't find when I should databound UserControl to data, as my UserControl doesn't have static look (it renders different depending on some property values and datasource).
I was try to simply set my user control in edititemtemplate
