Re-populating checkboxlist in a GridView from SQL comma-separated string

Here is my case.
I've saved data from CheckBoxList:
foreach (ListItem li in CheckBoxList1.Items)
{
Steps = String.Join(", ", CheckBoxList1.Items.Cast<ListItem>()
.Where(i => i.Selected));
}
It works fine but what I want is to get back this data from database in checkBoxList inside a DataGrid.
And bellow are many things I tried. Please help:

The C# code behind
private void Bind_CheckBoxList()
{
DataTable dt;
String SQL = "SELECT * from TransactionDetail";
string sConstr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conStr"].ConnectionString;
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(sConstr))
{
using (SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(SQL, conn))
{

using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(comm))
{

da.Fill(dt);
}
conn.Close();
}
}
GridView1.DataSource = dt;
GridView1.DataBind();
}
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
CheckBoxList c = (CheckBoxList)e.Row.FindControl("CheckBoxList2");
DataTable dt;
String SQL = "SELECT * FROM TransactionDetail";
string sConstr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conStr"].ConnectionString;
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(sConstr))
{
using (SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(SQL, conn))
{

using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(comm))
{
if (c != null)
{
Label test = (Label)(e.Row.FindControl("lblBrand"));
Steps = test.Text;
string[] items = Steps.Split(new[] { ", " }, StringSplitOptions.None);
foreach (ListItem li in c.Items)
li.Selected = items.Contains(li.Text);
}
dt = new DataTable("tbl");
da.Fill(dt);
}
}
c.DataSource = dt;
c.DataTextField = what to write here to pass the array Text;
c.DataValueField = "SNo";
c.DataBind();
}
}

Hey thanks i solve it by creating another table for Steps and same for Documents Required ,,, its now showing the checkBoxList that i want into the datagrid and bellow the Code
if ((e.Row.RowState & DataControlRowState.Edit) == 0)
{
CheckBoxList c = (CheckBoxList)e.Row.FindControl("CheckBoxList2");
CheckBoxList CheckBoxListDR = (CheckBoxList)e.Row.FindControl("CheckBoxList3");
DataTable dt;
String SQL = "SELECT distinct S.Steps, D.DocumentsRequired, T.TransactionID FROM [StepsIsSelectedTable] S JOIN TransactionDetail T " +
" ON S.TransactionIDSteps = T.TransactionID JOIN DocumentsRequiredIsSelected D " +
"ON D.TransactionIDDR = T.TransactionID WHERE " +
"TransactionIDDR ='" + TreeView1.SelectedValue + "' and S.StepsIsSelected='True' and D.DocumentsRequiredIsSelected='True'" +
" group by S.Steps, D.DocumentsRequired ,T.TransactionID";
string sConstr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conStr"].ConnectionString;
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(sConstr))
{
using (SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(SQL, conn))
{
conn.Open();
using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(comm))
{
dt = new DataTable("tbl");
da.Fill(dt);
}
}
c.DataSource = dt;
CheckBoxListDR.DataSource = dt;
c.DataTextField = "Steps";
c.DataValueField = "TransactionID";
CheckBoxListDR.DataTextField = "DocumentsRequired";
CheckBoxListDR.DataValueField = "TransactionID";
c.DataBind();
c.SelectedValue = "TransactionID";
CheckBoxListDR.DataBind();
CheckBoxListDR.SelectedValue = "1";
}
}

OnRowDataBound event in GridView not firing at all

I put a break point on the first line in the DataGrid_AuditSearch_RowDataBound function and it never even hits it. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Check this guy out, looks like setting AutoGenerateColumns="False" breaks this some.

You are using a DataGrid, not a GridView. The DataGrid does not have an OnRowDataBound event. Use the OnItemDataBound event instead.

The selected row did not select in gridview. May i know how to enable gridview row. I used msdn and other documents and i followed,but nothing helps.
I design i set enable selection, but still i didn't find out issue.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,

Basically we get SelectedRow of GridView Upon some GridviewRow Action event like OnSelectedIndexChanged , OnSelectedIndexChanging , OnRowEditing or from Template control like Button click. But here in your coding I don't think your btnsub_Click is inside Gridview so If you want to use the SelectedGridViewRow after your GridviewRow Action event then save the index in some temporary variable or pass the variable to method as argument.
protected void GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int index = Gridview1.SelectedIndex;
hiddenfield.Value = index.ToString();
}
OR In OnRowEditing also you can get the index of row
protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "EditRow")
{
GridViewRow gr = (GridViewRow)((Button)e.CommandSource).NamingContainer;
int index = gr.RowIndex;
hidval.Value = index.ToString();
}
}
and on button Click you can get the hiddenfield value as index:
protected void btnsub_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection con = Connection.DBconnection();
if (Textid.Text.Trim().Length > 0)
{
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("StoredProcedure3", con);
com.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#id", Textid.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Name", Textusername.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Class", Textclass.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Section", Textsection.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#address", Textaddress.Text.Trim());
com.ExecuteNonQuery();
if(!String.IsNullOrEmpty(hiddenfield.Value))
{
int index = Convert.ToInt16(hiddenfield.Value);
GridView1.Rows[index].Cells[1].Text = Textusername.Text;
GridView1.Rows[index].Cells[2].Text = Textclass.Text;
GridView1.Rows[index].Cells[3].Text = Textsection.Text;
GridView1.Rows[index].Cells[4].Text = Textaddress.Text;
}
}
else
{
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("StoredProcedure1", con);
com.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Name", Textusername.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Class", Textclass.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Section", Textsection.Text.Trim());
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("#address", Textaddress.Text.Trim());
com.ExecuteNonQuery();
Response.Redirect("studententry.aspx");
}
}

Paging in nested gridview webforms

I am having a little trouble with paging in a nested grid view.
When I try to change page I am getting some very strange and unexpected behaviour. Sometimes it will post back but not actually change the page and sometimes it does change the page but not as expected, it is messing with the order so you will have some items from the previous page still.

I would be eternally grateful of any assistance with this matter. If you require any further information please let me know and I will provide.

Although nobody wanted to help me, I have found the answer to my problem.
I thought id share this information as it may be able to help somebody else.
This is what I came up with for my child gridview pageindexchanging event:
protected void grdSupImages_PageIndexChanging(object sender, GridViewPageEventArgs e)
{
GridView gv = (GridView)sender;
gv.PageIndex = e.NewPageIndex;
BindNestedGrid(Convert.ToInt32(gv.ToolTip), gv);
}

Gridview in Modal Popup Extender- Postback Issues?

I have a C# .Net application with a gridview within an Ajax Modal Popup (VS2008). I have the grid view set to return 10 records per page with paging enabled.
When the user clicks to change page within the gridview there is a postback which closes the modal window and then opens it again using ModalPopup.show();
Is there any way to avoid the postback of the whole page and just postback the gridview whilst keeping the modal window active? At the moment the postback of the whole page gives the impression of flicker...

thanks for your suggestion. I've put the gridview into a...
<asp:UpdatePanel>
<ContentTemplate>
The modal now stays however when I click a record in the grid view it doesn't close!
