Question about retrieving DataGridItem values from DataGrid Items.

I am sure this has been asked before, but I was wondering is there some way
of getting the data values out of a DataGrid Item without having to resort
to indexing into the item's cell collection?

I would like to be able to retrieve row column values by DataRowViw object,
rather than by index. I know that this can by done by using the DataItem
when the DataGrid is initially bound, but unless you bind on every postback,
this will not work all of the time.

I want to be able to retrieve the data from a DataGrid row by the binding
name on every postback without having to resort to cell indexing. Is this
possible?

Hi All: I am populating a Data Table with File/Folder information from my drive... I am then binding this data table to a DataGrid. Due to the size of the DataGrid data, I use the built in paging. All of this seems to work just fine. In certain circumstances I need to programically change one of the data column values from true to false or from false to true... To do this, I read in each datagriditem in the datagrid.items collection...

I know it's dumb ... sometimes frustrating I want the text and a dropdownlist align with both side of a table cell, i.e. text align left and dropdownlist align right.

Hi. I already have a datagrid where I'm using paging. I have a stored procedure that fills a temp table with 200-500 rows and then sends back 10 records at the time. When I go to page 2 the SP fills the temp table again and returns rows 10-19. The temp table is dropped after each call to the SP, so it has to be created and filled every time the user changes page in the datagrid. My question is this: Would it be more efficient to...

Got a simple ASPX page (.NET v1.1) with a DataGrid displaying a list of widgets. If the page has a QueryString called WidgetId specific, I need to automatically mark the specific DataGridItem as selected. Pretty simple, here's what I did: for (int i=0; i<dgWidgets.Items.Count; i++) { DataGridItem oDataGridItem = dgWidgets.Items; if (oDataGridItem.Cells.Text == WidgetId)

Hi, all, I was tangled by the DataGridItem.DataItem property. I tried to invoke that property to get and display the contents that was bound to the currently selected row. However, an exception surprised me that it said "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." How could it happen? I have set the data source, and called the DataBind(). I looked up the MSDN documents, and just find some inessential descriptions, and a code...

I have a dropdown list in a datagrid which I am dynamically adding items to with JavaScript. When I try to access the value of the dropdown list on postback, there is no value. The value is null.

I have a nested dropdown inside a datagrid. One for colors one for sizes. Not all items have colors or sizes, however, so I need to find a way to detect if the drop down is blank and make the control not visible. If there is a value then I need to add a choose a size. I am having no problem with the choose a size being added to the control. It just does not recognize when the value is null or blank. The control is still visible. Dim...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
