I have a gridview that adds rows in the footertemplate that works fine. I want to add RowEditing and RowDeleting to the grid. I added the RowEditing method but when I click the 'Edit' Button, the add row is displayed in the footer as if it is the "Add Row' command. When I created a prototype of a grid, I had a column just for editing and it was a commandfield. WHen you click the button, the row would change so that all of the fields were editable. How can I do that when the field is an ItemTemplate field?
This is my markup:

This is my code behind:
protected void MappingGridView_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
MappingGridView.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
populateEnrollMappingGrid();
}
When I click the edit button, the RowEditing method is not called and the footer row displays the insert action.
How do I get the Edit button to make the row clicked editable?
UPDATED INFORMATION Page_Load This is the Page_Load Method:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
//Get the Environment Setting to determine the database to access
txtBoxEnvironment.Text = CurrentEnvironment;
DAL.setCurrentEnvironment(CurrentEnvironment);
//Get All Section information from database
CSectionInfo.getData();
//Get All Mapping informatio from database
CEnrollMappingInfo.getData();
//Populate the Mapping grid
MappingGridView.DataSource = CEnrollMappingInfo.getInitialData();
//Populate the Drop Down Section List
populateDropDownSectionList(CEnrollMappingInfo.SelectedSectionID);
//Grid must be bound after the Dropdown List is set so the value in the footer can be determined
MappingGridView.DataBind();
//Populate the Section grid
SectionGridView.DataSource = CSectionInfo.getDataUsingSectionID(CEnrollMappingInfo.SelectedSectionID);
//Get Course information from database
populateCourseGrid();
//Populate the Drop Down Course List
populateDropDownCourseList(CSectionInfo.SelectedCourseID);
//Grid must be bound after the Dropdown List is set so the value in the footer can be determined
SectionGridView.DataBind();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
logger.ErrorException(ex.Message, ex);
Response.Redirect("~/Error.aspx");
}
}
Thanks.
I corrected the problem...
In my markup, I set the Edit Button CausesValidation=true and ValidationGroup-MappingGrid which is what the insert validation is in the footer. To correct, I set the CausesValidation to false and removed the ValidationGroup.
I set these values in the Update Button field.
Work now!
Thanks.
