Hi
Am doing a web app which has a datagrid with template columns. One of the
columns has dropdowns for each row. I also have the EditCommandColu mn. The
problem am facing is I just see the last value of the dataset for the
dropdowns(in the non-edit mode). and moreover its just showing it as a label
instead of a dropdown. But once I click the Edit button, its displaying the
dropdowns with all dataset values. Here is the code for my ItemDataBound
event handler
protected void dgDetails_ItemD ataBound(object sender, DataGridItemEve ntArgs e)
{
if(e.Item.ItemT ype == ListItemType.Ed itItem)
{
DropDownList list = (DropDownList)e .Item.FindContr ol("ddlOrder") ;
list.DataSource = dsOrder;
list.DataTextFi eld = dsOrder.Tables[0].Columns[0].ColumnName;
list.DataValueF ield = dsOrder.Tables[0].Columns[0].ColumnName;
list.DataBind() ;
}
}
and this is the html
<ASP:TEMPLATECO LUMN HeaderText="Ord er">
<HEADERSTYLE FONT-BOLD="True" BACKCOLOR="#EDE AE7"></HEADERSTYLE>
<ITEMTEMPLATE >
<%# DataBinder.Eval (Container, "DataItem.Displ ayOrder") %>
</ITEMTEMPLATE>
<EDITITEMTEMPLA TE>
<ASP:DROPDOWNLI ST ID="ddlOrder" runat="server" CssClass="label 242"
Height="20" Width="40" Font-Size="12px"
DataValueField= "DisplayOrd er" DataTextField=" DisplayOrder"
DataSource='<%# dsOrder %>' SelectedIndex=' <%#
GetSelectedInde x(DataBinder.Ev al(Container.Da taItem,"Display Order").ToStrin g()) %>'
AutoPostBack="T rue" >
</ASP:DROPDOWNLIS T>
</EDITITEMTEMPLAT E>
</ASP:TEMPLATECOL UMN>
What do I have to do so that the dropdowns are shown when the page loads the
first time too.
Can anyone help me with it please?
Thanks
