Forms Data Controls :: Show Gridview Footer When Datasource Is Empty?
Mar 4, 2010
I have a gridview with insert new row controls in the footer binded to sql datasource. I want to show the footer when the datasource is empty. Although the empty data template is there but any other solution you fellows can tell me ?
I've got a gridview in which I have a footer that I use to insert rows into the grid. However, if the grid is empty no data is displayed (including the footer). Is there a way to still show the footer row so a user can insert additional rows into the grid despite it starting out as empty?
I am trying to show the footer template of a gridview on page load when there is no data in the database. The reason why im saying page load is that I have code to actually pull data from the database instead of a datasource.
The datasource of the datagrid is a LINQDataSource which relies on the value of a dropdownlist. In addition, I want to use the footer to insert new records - so I'd prefer not to use the empty dataset template. I am trying to find a way to always display the footer regardless if the datasource is empty or not.
EDIT: Is there a way to create an empty/invisible object of the type in the LinqDataSource?

I have a grid that contains a footer row conating the textboxes to insert data. The problem is that when there is no row in the the grid the header and the footer does not get displayed. Is there any way to show header and footer when there is no row in the grid?

muhammedsalimp almost resolved my query. But only problem I am left with is adding a TotalSum to the selective columns in GridView or In SQL.
It can be seen from the screen-shot that columns 1-7 does not require sum but columns after 7 all will require sum as they are the Items passed their now will vary from day to day.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I have a gridview and i wanted to add a row when the gridview is empty, so that the header would be shown anyway. I have read about it on the web but i can't quite understand where exactly should i add the row.
My grid is binded by a sqldatasource. I am already adding a second header for the grid (to display some filters, and they need to be shown even if there are no results so that the user can perform another "search"), on rowCreated event, so, where am i supposed to add the row? Which events are fired even if the gridview is empty?
