I can't seem to find an answer to this, maybe I'm not using the correct terminology.
I have a ListView that is editable, I want it so that if a user clicks on Edit and then Update, that the field is updated with the value from another textbox, not the field they are editing.
The reason for this is that I have a Colour Picker that alters the value of a textbox, when they click Update I want this value to be the updated value.
I guess I utilise the ItemUpdating event, but I don't have much in the way of code because I'm pretty lost. I have this so far:
protected void ListView2ItemUpdating(object sender, ListViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
var selectedItem = ListView2.Items[ListView2.EditIndex];
// I have no idea what to put here
something = ColourChosen.Value;
}
Here is an image that I hope will make what I'm trying to do a little more understandable:
If any one could point me in the right direction of any examples, that would be much appreciated.
Although this doesn't answer my initial question this does what I want to happen.
What I should be doing is altering the database that ListView is attached to.
I use this code:
protected void ListView2ItemUpdating(object sender, ListViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
using (var myEntities = new i96X_utilEntities())
{
var myPlotColour = (from plotC in myEntities.PlotColours
where plotC.ID == selectedID
select plotC).Single();
myPlotColour.PlotColour1 = ColourChosen.Value;
myEntities.SaveChanges();
}
}
So, even though I have no idea how to intercept a field being updated in a ListView, in this example I don't need to.
