WebData Grid View State Issue
posted

Hi,

 

I am Using WebDataGrid in my form. I am binding the control in my page load(inside !IsPostBack). I set my DataSource as a List<SomeObject>. After that i Bind the Control. The data is populated in the grid. After that i made a postback in my form. (Click a Button for example).

After this postback the Grid which i bind is getting cleared. Only the header of the grid is maintaining the state. The Details row will be completly Blank.

Can you guid me, if i am missing some thing, or do I need to set any property for the Grid.

 

Please Help me..

 

Thank You..!!!

    Hi, I had this problem too, I had 3 choices:

    1. Set the property EnableDataViewState to true, so the data will be stored in the grid's viewstate.
    2. Set DataSource and call DataBind on every Page_Load event, regardless of the IsPostBack flag.
    3. Link to an ObjectDataSource through the DataSourceID property, so the the data is automatically refreshed on demand.

    In my case, I chose option 2, because I already had to save the data in a  viewstate property. But I think you may have a different scenario.
