Hello Stan,
DataGrid dgTemp = ((DataGrid)sender);
if(dgTemp.EditItemIndex == e.Item.ItemIndex)
{
if(e.Item.ItemType.ToString() != "Header" && e.Item.ItemType.ToString() != "Footer")
{
DropDownList ddlTemp = ((DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("myDDL"));
ddlTemp.Items.FindByText("myLookupValue").Selected =true;
}
}
This code could probably be simplified further, but it should be a good starting point.
HTH.
Best regards,

!This is how I access Pieces field in my editable datargid during Update
!event:
!
!protected void grdMain_OnUpdate(Object sender, DataGridCommandEventArgs e)
!{
! string Pieces = ((TextBox) e.Item.FindControl ("txtPieces")).Text;
! ....
!}
!
!
!I need to highlight this field when user clicks Edit. (This makes easier for
!them to overwrite the content of the field). However, the same code does not
!work during
!Edit event - FindControl returns null. It looks like the the control is not
!available at this time...
!
!
!Is there a way for me to access it AFTER user clicked Edit but BEFORE
!Update?
!
!Thanks,
!
