Forms Data Controls :: How To Retrieve GridView ButtonField Text Value
Oct 26, 2010
I know there are a number of posts along this topic, but everything I find seems to not have a final solution or else I'm just not getting what the solution is. I have a simple GridView with a ButtonField and a BoundField. I'm having the same problem most of the other posts seem to have; I can retrieve the BoundField value easy enough in the RowCommand subroutine, but I can't figure out how to get the value of the ButtonField. Here is the code I'm trying to use:
[Code]....
sAddr is being set to the correct address value, but sName is set to an empty string no matter what I try. The GridView HTML all works correctly, including showing the names from my bound data table on the button text. I can use to retrieve the ButtonField text value?
I have a gridview that displays the current weeks scheduled games. Ideally I have added a column to the end of the gridview that I would like display 1 of 3 values. If the game has already been played I would like to display the score of the game; if the game has yet to be played I would like the column blank and if someone on either team has indicated that they can't make the game I would like to display a button that says "subs needed" and take you to another page to sign up to be a sub. Can this be done? I have been able to change the background color of the line based on the two boolean flags from the database using the RowDataBound event handler but I can't seem to find a way to set the value of a specific field in my row. (The background is set for the whole row.)
I am wondering what is the best way to do this. Here is my observation:
1. If a GridView is assigned a datasource at design time, the header row's text can be retrieved with ((DataControlField)GridView.Columns[index]).HeaderText.
2. If a GridView is assigned a datasource at run time by code-behind, the header row's text can be retrieved with GridView.HeaderRow.Cells[index].Text.
Is there a way to do it without trying one, if not working, then the other of the aforementioned methods.
I am trying to insert a buttonfield at the end of the datagrid. I am using the following code. However, it is getting inserted at the beginning of the datagrid.
I am using VB and trying to get the first value of the cell of a gridview. The gridview is returning a header and 1 value.
In the code behind I have used the below, but the textbox is showing " ". It is not populating the first cell of the gridview databind.
Protected Sub GridView3_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewRowEventArgs)If (Not (e.Row.DataItem) Is Nothing) Then ' Set the capacity label text TextBoxTest.Text = e.Row.Cells(1).Text End If End Sub
I want to have two asp:buttonfield buttons in one cell. I have to be able to access the Gridview.SelectedRow. And I don't seem to be able to add a asp:buttonfield to a templatefield.
A bit new to buttonfields in gridviews - Did a bit of research and most of the stuff I came up with had the gridviews with data bound like so :
[Code]....
private void BindGridControl() {//method created so that the binded gridview can allow paging controls DataTable dt = new DataTable(); try { /*Gridview requires another column either a checkbox or a hyperlink column that * can drill down another level and load a page where user can edit the data/cheque * Will place an exception here that will prompt a window to notify users that there were no rows returned */ GridView1.Visible = true; sqlConn.Open(); sqlSearch = "select store_nbr as [Store number],date as Date,data_type as [Data type],acct_1 as [Account 1], "; sqlSearch += "amt_1 as [Amount 1],acct_2 as [Account 2],amt_2 as [Amount 2], "; sqlSearch += "acct_3 as [Account 3], amt_3 as [Amount 3], cheque_nbr as [Cheque Number], "; sqlSearch += "cheque_amt as [Cheque Amount], gst_hst as [GST/HST], qst as [QST],comments as [Comment] "; sqlSearch += "from SimpData where store_nbr = '" + StoreNum + "'"; sqlCmd = new SqlCommand(sqlSearch, sqlConn); SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(sqlCmd); adapter.Fill(dt); if (dt.Rows.Count > 0) { //if there are rows returned bind the datasource to the gridview GridView1.DataSource = dt; GridView1.DataBind(); } else { //label control notifies user that there are no rows found lblResults.Text = "Search returned no rows"; } My ButtonFields<Columns> <asp:ButtonField ButtonType="Button" CommandName="Select" HeaderText="Select item" ShowHeader="True" Text="Select1"> <ControlStyle Width="50px" /> <HeaderStyle Font-Size="XX-Small" /> </asp:ButtonField> <asp:ButtonField ButtonType="Button" CommandName="Select" HeaderText="Select item" ShowHeader="True" Text="Select2"> <ControlStyle Width="50px" /> <HeaderStyle Font-Size="XX-Small" /> </asp:ButtonField> <asp:ButtonField ButtonType="Button" CommandName="Select" HeaderText="Select item " ShowHeader="True" Text="Select3"> <ControlStyle Width="50px" /> <HeaderStyle Font-Size="XX-Small" /> </asp:ButtonField> </Columns>
I have a gridview with a column for tracking numbers. I would like for the user to be able to click the tracking number in that column and it open another browser window to the site with the tracking information. I have tried Hyperllinkfield and I cannot get it to open the website.
I have a gridview with a ButtonField. When I leave the button type as the default LinkButton, clicking that button fires the RowCommand and everything works as expected. As soon as I change the button type to ImageButton and assign an ImageUrl, clicking that button does not fire the RowCommand.
I have a gridview which i bind to DataView. I need to manipulate text on cell[2] of each row. I was wondering if i could do it in the OnRowCreated event? cell[0] in asp looks like this
I have 2 gridviews in an aspx file. The First one is master grid, and the second one is detail grid. (such as Customer and it's Invoices) First, I load data into master grid. I use FireBug and notice that every row has it's row id, such as:
Then, in master grid, I select a buttonfiled in a row to load the second gridview.Every thing alright, the second grid has it's row id But The master grid lost all row id that I dont know the reason why?
I want to add my own set of functions into my GridView. For example, I have a help desk management module that displays all the help desk tickets in a GridView. When the tech is finished supporting the customer, I want him/her to click the "Close Ticket" link in the GridView to close the ticket.
I've never used the ButtonField feature field before so I thought this would be perfect but I'm a little confused about getting the TicketID in the GridViewCommandEventArgs method. I thought I could just put the TicketID in the CommandArgument and pull it from there but looks like I can't do that as ButtonField is not giving me the CommanArguement option.
I'm not displaying TicketID's in the GridView because they're "uniqueidentifier" datatype and look ugly. How do I pull the TicketID if I were to use a ButtonField? Or is there a better way to do this?
I already have a method in my DAL expecting the TicketID so all I'd have to do is get the TicketID and call this method.
In the application I am working on there is a Gridview with a select and on clicking the select we get the value of the DataKeyNames.
Basically we have OnSelectedIndexChanged="GridIndexChanged" in the Gridview property.
Now the problem is that I want to add a ButtonField with a Commandname, so that I can call a different method. In the OnSelectedIndexChanged it's simple to get that value by doingGrivView1.SelectedDataKey.value, But how can I get the value of SelectedDataKey in the Button Click?
I am using a linkbutton iside a gridview.... i need to get the text of the link button in another function. how can get that ... i tried find control .. but its not working.... I created the link button from other function which executes just b4 this function...
I have a usercontrol that has a gridview. I have a few boundcolumns and then a buttonfield. The buttonfield needs to have a confirm message box and then proceed to the RowCommand event. In the RowCommand, I'm trapping for a CommandName called "DeleteFile".
The weird thing is everything works correctly with deleting a row if the onclick code is not registered. I'm using attributes.add for this.
I know there is another option for using a templatefield and then a button rather than a buttonfield. But, I've noticed that this approach causes a postback that effects another usercontrol on my page. It thinks I've submitted it which can either cause it to error out or potentially sumbit more information which I want to avoid.
I have created a buttonfield in code behind and assign data to it. Does anyone know how to adjust the style of the data in the buttonfield specfically related to size?
actually in my web-page there are 4 columns in gridview[one of which is imageid] and a checkbox. I just want to know that how will i pass the value of selected rows imageid to next page.
(1) in a gridview there is the CommandField where you can use 'select' which simply highlights a row in the grid data. upon clicking this, can i use javascript to show a pop up message?
(2) upon clicking the CommandField 'select' can i retrieve the row id? if not then if i convert one of my column (type bit) and convert to checkbox, upon checking the checkbox, can i retrieve the row id?
I want to retrieve the value for the id column for each row in a gridview. I dont want this in a gridview rowdatabound function or anyhting, but an external function.
I am not able to get the cell value from the gridview...
I have a gridview with the second cell as the orderid which is a label... I tried all methods but could not get the value...Above methods i have tried... Is there any other way we can get the cell value if the cell is a label.
I have a grid view. When I click edit, the OnRowCommand fires and the row goes into edit state. Label becomes a TextBox. I then attempt to alter this value in some way and click update. This again fires the OnRowCommand event. The problem is, when I attempt to capture the new value, it instead just shows the original value.In my grid view I have:
