how would it be for a username then?

I trierd DirectCast(WebDataGrid.Rows(rowindex).Items(columnindex).FindControl("Username").Value()

but that doesnt work

Crea

Hi,

That's true, you can cast something that's not there.  Your if statement should be if x=(the column index of your checkbox) then cast...

You're also right that this is not the easiest way to work with checkboxes in a grid.  Infragistics is coming out with a checkbox provider for this grid in their first release of 2011.  Then, it will work smoothly.  Until then, you have to work with one of these workarounds.

Hi Ed,

isnt there like a foreach statement I could use, like  For Eac Checkbox.item.checked row/column (x),
or is the if statement the most efficient way of doing a loop?

Was wondering since I binded the webdatagrid to a dataset is it possible to loop through the dataset, since it has to store the values anyway.

Sebastian

Hi,

I don't know why you need the whole second loop all together.  Whynot do it like this assuming your checkbox is column index 7:

For i As Integer = 0 To WebDataGrid1.Rows.Count - 1
                If DirectCast(WebDataGrid1.Rows(i).Items(7).FindControl("Algemeen"), CheckBox).Checked() AndAlso DirectCast(WebDataGrid1.Rows(i).Items.Item(1).Value, objusername) Then
                        Dim User As System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal
                        User = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User
                        If Not User.IsInRole("Algemeen") Then
                            Dim rc As New DotNetNuke.Security.Roles.RoleController()
                            Dim ri As DotNetNuke.Security.Roles.RoleInfo = rc.GetRoleByName(PortalId, "Algemeen")
                        
                            Dim ui As DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserInfo = DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetCurrentUserInfo()
                            rc.AddUserRole(PortalId, ui.UserID, ri.RoleID, Null.Null
                End If

Next

Hi ed,
the wierd thing about it is is return an error 'oObject reference not set to an instance of an object'

I think it has to do with the first line (if DirectCAst(WebDataGrid1.Rows(i).Items(6).FindControl("Algemeen"), Checkbox).Checked()

my thought it is cant find the control wich I cant really understand.

Got any ideas on how to fix this problem, since i've been searching the web for it and I cant find anything about it.

Hi,

In your markup, Algemeen checkbox is in the 3rd column so it shouldn't be items(6), it should be items(2).  Findcontrol finds a control in the template and there is no checkbox control in column 7.

Hi ed,

Since i'm working with DotNetNuke, and i'm creating my own modules for it.
I found something wich does almost the exact same thing which I'm woking on.

Would it also work for the infragistics WebDataGridView? This code comes form a really old post I found, posted in 2003 so based on the developments this is on old way, my code for addin a user is the correct one.

//New Code

Dim User As System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal
                User = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User

                If Not User.IsInRole("RoleAsString") Then
                    Dim rc As New DotNetNuke.Security.Roles.RoleController()
                    Dim ri As DotNetNuke.Security.Roles.RoleInfo = rc.GetRoleByName(PortalId, "RoleNameAsTring")

                    Dim ui As DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserInfo = DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetCurrentUserInfo()
                    rc.AddUserRole(PortalId, ui.UserID, ri.RoleID, Null.NullDate)
                End If

//Old code

    Private Sub AddUserToRoles()
            Dim objRoles As New RoleController

            Dim Selected As System.Web.UI.WebControls.CheckBox
            Dim intRow As Integer
            Dim DI As DataGridItem
            Dim TC As TableCell
            Dim RoleId As Integer

            For intRow = 0 To grdServices.Items.Count - 1
                DI = grdServices.Items.Item(intRow)
                TC = DI.Cells(0)
                Selected = TC.FindControl("chkService")
                If Selected.Checked = True Then
                    RoleId = CInt(DI.Cells(1).Text)
                    Dim objRole As RoleInfo = objRoles.GetRole(RoleId, PortalSettings.PortalId)
                    If objRole.IsPublic And objRole.ServiceFee = 0.0 Then
                        objRoles.UpdateUserRole(PortalId, User.UserID, RoleId, False)
                    End If
                Else
                    RoleId = CInt(DI.Cells(1).Text)
                    Dim objRole As RoleInfo = objRoles.GetUserRole(PortalId, User.UserID, RoleId)
                    If Not objRole Is Nothing Then
                        objRoles.DeleteUserRole(PortalId, User.UserID, RoleId)
                    End If
                End If
            Next
        End Sub

Hi ed,

it's not the names, since I just paste it as preview, every controlname = cbName.
removed the parenthesis and still getting the error

Could it be that it has something to do with the object Username wich could be wrong declared?
Since after exploiting the code I found out that after .Value, it asks for a Object As Type.

DirectCast(WebDataGrid1.Rows(i).Items.Item(1).Value, oUsername)

Hi,

The first thing I notice that's wrong is that the ID of the checkbox is cbAlgemeen so you should use findcontrol("cbAlgemeen").checked and leave off those parenthesis.

Ed

Could u try and explain what you did when you found out whats wrong?

Ed, thanks alot for helping me out.

Sebastian

Hi,

Put up the markup and code and I'll try to make it work.
