Add Handler (please!)

[Cassio]

Im adding datagrids dinamically into a page, so I have to do everything in the codebehind.

The problem is that I cant add the event handler for the EditCommand button

 

Heres some code

Dim colEdit As New WebControls.EditCommandColumn()

           colEdit.CancelText = "Cancelar"
           colEdit.UpdateText = "OK"
           colEdit.EditText = "Editar"
           colEdit.ButtonType = ButtonColumnType.LinkButton

           dg.Columns.Add(colEdit)

AddHandler dg.EditCommand, New DataGridCommandEventHandler(AddressOf dg_EditCommand)

 

I can make the ItemDataBound event bubble, but the EditCommand isnt working.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks

I forgot to mention the Edit method im using to try to catch the event:

 

Public Sub dg_EditCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridCommandEventArgs)

        CType(source, DataGrid).EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex

   End Sub

Is it firing?

If it is then do this

 

dg.EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex

 

OR

 

DirectCast(source, DataGrid).EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex

[Cassio]

Robby, it isnt firing. I dont know why.

 

I found this line of code in a site:

Grid.EditCommand += new DataGridCommandEventHandler(GridEdit); 

 

Its c#, how can I do that in VB?

What you're doing in VB is the same as that C# code. The only

difference is the placement of the code. You need to place your

code in the InitializeComponent method of the codebehind page,

not in Page_Load (as I'm assuming that's where it is ATM).

I´m using it inside a procedure that generates more than one datagrid and adds it to the page. I cant add it in the InitializeComponent because I dont know how many grids im gonna need.

i dont know if the syntax of the addhandler is correct i usually write

AddHandler dg.EditCommand, AddressOf dg_EditCommand

instead of

AddHandler dg.EditCommand, New DataGridCommandEventHandler(AddressOf dg_EditCommand)

i hope this helps

Fadi, that's exactly what Cassio has in his first post.
