Question

I have a TemplateColumn in my telerik radgird like below :

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter TemplateColumn_Commands column"
                                HeaderText="Commands" UniqueName="TemplateColumn_Commands"
                                AllowFiltering="False" Display="False">
                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <asp:LinkButton ID="lbDelete" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" CausesValidation="False"
                                        CssClass="lb">Delete</asp:LinkButton>
                                </ItemTemplate>
                                <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" VerticalAlign="Middle" />
                                <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" VerticalAlign="Middle" />
                            </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

i want to change display(or visible) property of this column server-side.
which event should i use and how can i do that?
Edit:
there is a button and a textbox and after click on that bottun i checked that text box text and if it be ok i want to change that display(or visible) property of that column(delete acction should be available only for admin with administrator username string)
that button is outside of that grid.

thanks in advance

Answer 1

you can do it like below. after binding telerik rad grid in server side code

grdDemo.DataSource = ds
grdDemo.DataBind()

grdDemo.MasterTableView.GetColumn("TemplateColumn_Commands").Display = False

it should resolve your issue. happy coding
