Hi all,

I have a gridView that I am binding to a typed dataset that is returned from a webservice(I am not using object datasource).

grid.datasource = dataset.datatable;

grid.databind()

and i am checking if it is not post back, ....

I have added a edit,update,cancel column to my gridview. All events fire, but as soon as I change button style to Button (instead of link), only updating event does not fire(cancel event or edit event fires).

Does anyone has any idea?!

Cheers,

Sina

Have you registered the event in the control?  There are a few ways to do this, the easiest is probably in markup....

<asp:Button ID="btnExample" runat="server" Text="Example" OnClick="btnExample_OnClick" />

Hi,

I am not using a template field with a button in it, I just added update,cacel,edit column type(it is a type of column u can add). In properties of that column, under appearance, u can choose button type to be link, button or image. And the only event that doesn't work is updating, cancelling works fine!

Here is the code I have:

<asp:GridView ID="grdDays" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" CellPadding="4"
                    DataKeyNames="wkdDayId" ForeColor="#333333" GridLines="None" OnRowCancelingEdit="grdDays_RowCancelingEdit"
                    OnRowEditing="grdDays_RowEditing" OnRowUpdating="grdDays_RowUpdating" Width="100%">
                    <RowStyle BackColor="#EFF3FB" />
                    <Columns>
                        <asp:BoundField DataField="wkdTitle" HeaderText="Day" ReadOnly="True" />
                        <asp:BoundField DataField="wkdStartTime" HeaderText="Start" />
                        <asp:BoundField DataField="wkdFinishTime" HeaderText="Finish" />
                        <asp:CommandField ShowEditButton="True" ButtonType="Button" />
                    </Columns>
                    <FooterStyle BackColor="#507CD1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
                    <PagerStyle BackColor="#2461BF" ForeColor="White" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
                    <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#D1DDF1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#333333" />
                    <HeaderStyle BackColor="#507CD1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
                    <EditRowStyle BackColor="#2461BF" />
                    <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="White" />
                </asp:GridView>

And in code behind i have:

        protected void grdTest_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
        {
            int a = 1;
            this.grdDays.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
            this.grdDays.DataBind();
        }

        protected void grdTest_RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
        {
            int a = 1;
        }

        protected void grdTest_RowCancelingEdit(object sender, GridViewCancelEditEventArgs e)
        {
            int a = 1;
        }
 and all get invoked except grdTest_RowUpdating.
Thanks

The first thing I notice is the in your markup the prefix for each handler is grdDays while in your codebehind the prefix is grdTest for each of the methods... I copied and pasted your code and changed the prefixes to match and everything works as expected for me.

You try restarting the IDE yet? This usually solves the problem when this happens to me.
