class icon in gridView column using VB.net - asp.net

I have one GridView and I have a CSS class called class="icon-p". I want to use this class in my GridView column "Modify", except using ButtonType="Image" and ImageUrl..`
Here is my GridView code:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
CssClass="table" DataKeyNames="id_s" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">
<Columns>
..
<asp:CommandField CancelText="cancel" DeleteText="delete" EditText="Update" HeaderText="Modify" ShowEditButton="True" ShowHeader="True" ButtonType="Image"/>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>

Right click on your GridView in design view then go to edit columns.
Find the commandfield and click the blue hyperlink at the bottom that says "Convert to Template".
Exit back out and go to your markup and you will find that the individual controls are there and you can get at them to set your CssClass etc. The only thing that makes it an update button is the CommandName="Update" attribute.
This article here details the conversion steps that I was trying to explain:
http://peterkellner.net/2009/09/06/detailsview-gridview-aspnet-disable-new-edit-delete-buttons/
You will then be left with something like this:
<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" Visible='<%# GetShowEditButton() %>'
CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit"></asp:LinkButton>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton2" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" Visible='<%# GetShowInsertButton() %>'
CommandName="New" Text="New"></asp:LinkButton>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton3" runat="server" CausesValidation="False"
CommandName="Delete" Text="Delete" Visible='<%# GetShowDeleteButton() %>' ></asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
You can then set the CssClass like this for example:
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="False"
Visible='<%# GetShowEditButton() %>' CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit"
CssClass="icon-p"></asp:LinkButton>

RowUpdating not firing in EditItemTemplate

I'm binding an array to GridView. Below is my template field and it doesn't fire RowUpdating when I click on update.
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Role">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" Text='<%# Container.DataItem.ToString() %>' ID="txtEditRole"></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<%# Container.DataItem.ToString() %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
This happened after making the field to TempleteField. Earlier the field was like below.
<asp:BoundField DataField="!" HeaderText="Role" />
Make sure you specify OnRowUpdating="gv_RowUpdating" event and also change FieldName in <%#Eval("Role") %>, see this example:
.aspx page
<asp:GridView ID="gv" runat="server" DataKeyNames="Id" AutoGenerateColumns="false" OnRowEditing="gv_RowEditing"
OnRowUpdating="gv_RowUpdating" OnRowCancelingEdit="gv_RowCancelingEdit" OnRowCommand="gv_RowCommand" OnRowDeleting="gv_RowDeleting">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnUpdate" runat="server" CommandName="Update" Text="Update" />
<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnCancel" runat="server" CommandName="Cancel" Text="Cancel" />
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnEdit" runat="server" CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit" />
<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnDelete" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" Text="Delete" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this record?')" CausesValidation="false" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Role">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEditRole" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Role") %>' />
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblRole" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Role") %>' />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
.aspx.cs
protected void gv_RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
//your code here..
}

How can I pass parameters to a Crystal Report from my GridView?

I have an existing SQL database and a ASP.NET application. My application has two existing GridViews and login functions. I also have an existing Crystal Report designed to automatically create a receipt from my SQL database. This is done by the user filling out 3 specific parameters, and the rest of the data (which are in parallel with those parameters) will automatically fill out the crystal report.
I want to create a print button in my GridView to automatically fill out the 3 parameters in the Crystal Report. This is an attempt to make my application more user friendly. In short, the user would push the print button in its new column in the GridView, and the 3 parameters would be automatically picked up and filled into the Crystal Report.
My parameters are: "EmpID", "KeyControl", and "ControlNumber". My crystal report label is "x.rpt"
Here is my GridView markup:
<asp:GridView ID="gridKeyAndBuildingInformation" runat="server" CssClass="style3"

You could handle the RowCommand event, which would fire when you click that delete button in your ButtonField column. Add this to the end of your GridView declaration markup (after "CellSpacing="2"" but before the ">"):
OnRowCommand="gridKeyAndBuildingInformation_RowCommand"
And then, in your code behind you would need something like this (this is C#, if you need VB.NET let me know - this question isn't tagged with a server-side language):
protected void gridKeyAndBuildingInformation_RowCommand(Object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
// Get your ID for the row you're on
int ID = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);
// Get the row the button was clicked in
GridViewRow row = gridKeyAndBuildingInformation.Rows[ID];
// Get the values you need from that row
int EmpID = row.Cells[0];
int ControlNumber = row.Cells[1];
int KeyNumber = row.Cells[2];
// Use those numbers to make your call to the Crystal Report
// I don't know what this part would look like.
}
You can read more about the RowCommand event on MSDN: GridView.RowCommand Event

How to get cell contents in ASP.NET GridView while handling OnRowEditing?

I have a GridView with a BoundField column and quite a few item templates like the following:
<asp:GridView ID="gvUsers" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" OnRowCommand="gvUsers_RowCommand"
OnRowDataBound="gvUsers_RowDataBound" DataKeyNames="UserId" OnRowEditing="gvUsers_OnRowEditing"
OnRowUpdating="gvUsers_OnRowUpdating" OnRowUpdated="gvUsers_OnRowUpdated"
DataSourceID="DataSource1" Width="807px" Height="105px"
AllowPaging="True" >
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="UserName" HeaderText="User Name"
SortExpression="UserName" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Approver">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="cbApprover" runat="server" Enabled="false" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Auditor">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="cbAuditor" runat="server" Enabled="false" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="btnEdit" runat="server"
CommandArgument='<%# Eval("UserName") %>' CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit" />
<asp:Label ID="lblPipe1" runat="server" Text=" | " />
<asp:LinkButton ID="btnUpdate" runat="server"
CommandArgument='<%# Eval("UserName") %>' CommandName="Update" Text="Update" />
<asp:Label ID="lblPipe" runat="server" Text=" | " />
<asp:LinkButton ID="btnDelete" runat="server"
CommandArgument='<%# Eval("UserName") %>' CommandName="Remove"
OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this user?');"
Text="Delete" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
While handling the Edit link button I need to use the value in the BoundField, UserName. Unfortunately during the OnRowEditing handler, all strings are empty "". This is also true in the ensuing OnRowDataBound handler for the row in question where e.Row.RowState == DataControlRowState.Edit. Is there a way to obtain this value after the user clicks on the Edit link, and commences the OnRowEditing event?
I arrived at a solution that was a bit more complicated than I was hoping for. I'll show code later but I did the following:
Created a HiddenField to hold the
value of the cell I wanted to edit in
its view state.
In the OnRowDataBound handler, I assigned the value to the
HiddenField.
The ItemTemplate, as seen above, sends the UserName as an
argument. I store this value in
the HiddenField.
The OnRowEditing is fired after the Command handler. That is where I
read the HiddenField.
If anyone has a simpler solution I would love hear about it.
Could it be that you're using late binding in TemplatedItems without EditItemTemplates?

can we get ID of the Autogenerateeditbutton="true" in detailsview control in .cs file

i have an requirment where i need to get the can we get ID of the Autogenerateeditbutton="true" of detailsview control in .cs file
is there any way we can do it
thank you
I dont think you can without first converting the field to a templatefield.
<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" Visible='true'
CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit"></asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
