[RESOLVED] use Gridview inside ItemTemplate of a formview

Hello All,

I have formview and I would like to add gridview in ITEMTEMPLATE of the formview?

the gridview will use sam datasource as formview.

Would you please tell me how can I achieve this?

In formview ItemTemplate I have got the image control which displays the image of  a person.

I also got the Table which displays the information of a person 

and I want to display persons other details like order details in a gridview.

all data is coming from the same datasource and I have bound the formview in code behind file.

Hi Ijaz,

I am having one formview whose data source is assigned programitycally in codebehined using databind().

Now i am putting gridview to the same formview and I also need to display some data in gridview. 

I am lost somewhere here even the page is not displaying the gridview at all.

Regards

Use FormView1.FindControl() to find your gridview and set the datasource and call databind. That should work I think. 

i have done it like 

myform.FindControl("myGV").DataBind();

but no luck

gridview is not coming up at all

You have to use findcontrol and cast that to gridview then set the DataSource property AND THEN call databind.

Hello I have done that but still gridview is not visible inside formview

I have done below on button click

assigned datasource to formview

bound data to formview

gridview mygv= (gridview)form1.findcontrol("MyGrid");

mygv.datasource= ds.tables["Object"];

mygv.databind();

but no luck

Finally I have achieved it dont know why but I cleared the history of browser and then rebuild the solution again and it worked

Thank you very much to all for your precious time

Regards
