adding header row to gridview won't allow you to save the last item row
- by Lex
I've modified my GridView to have an extra Header row, however that extra row has caused my grid view row count to be incorrect.
Basically, when I want to save the Gridview now, it doesn't recognize the last item line.
In my current test I have 5 Item Lines, however only 4 of them are being saved.
My code for creating the additional header Line:
protected void gvStatusReport_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
// This grid has multiple rows, fake the top row.
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header)
{
SortedList FormatCells = new SortedList();
FormatCells.Add("1", ",6,1");
FormatCells.Add("2", "Time Spent,7,1");
FormatCells.Add("3", "Total,2,1");
FormatCells.Add("4", ",6,1");
GetMultiRowHeader(e, FormatCells);
}
}
The function to create a new row:
public void GetMultiRowHeader(GridViewRowEventArgs e, SortedList GetCels)
{
GridViewRow row;
IDictionaryEnumerator enumCels = GetCels.GetEnumerator();
row = new GridViewRow(-1, -1, DataControlRowType.Header, DataControlRowState.Normal);
while (enumCels.MoveNext())
{
string[] count = enumCels.Value.ToString().Split(Convert.ToChar(","));
TableCell cell = new TableCell();
cell.RowSpan = Convert.ToInt16(count[2].ToString());
cell.ColumnSpan = Convert.ToInt16(count[1].ToString());
cell.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(count[0].ToString()));
cell.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Center;
row.Cells.Add(cell);
}
e.Row.Parent.Controls.AddAt(0, row);
}
Then when I'm going to save, I loop through the rows:
int totalRows = gvStatusReport.Rows.Count;
for (int rowNumber = 0; rowNumber < totalRows; rowNumber++)
{
However the first line doesn't seem to have any of the columns that the item row has, and the last line doesn't even show up.
My problem is that I do need the extra header line, but what is the best way to fix this?
