I have an UltraWebGrid (below) that is dynamically bound by Dataset server-side. I need it to have a row edit template with textbox, dropdownlist, and datepicker. I have several problems: 1) I cannot initialize the controls, like prefilling the dropdownlist, 2) I cannot set the initial values to the controls or get the changed values from them, 3) I have to do everything server-side in the code-behind, I cannot manipulate the data client-side, so no javascript. I've tried the various grid methods like updaterow, updategrid, etc., but cannot capture the right event(s). I am using vb.net 2008 with ig controls v10.3.20103.2134. I also cannot use the newer WebDataGrid, this has to be UltraWebGrid for now. I need to have something working correctly soon, so any help or simple example would be hugely appreciated. Thanks so much.

Hello dbishop9,
Thank you for posting in our forum.
If you don’t want to use any JS you’ll have to use the WebDateChooser control instead of the WebDatePicker since the latter is part of the Akido controls set and is better integrated with the new WebDataGrid .You can still use it but you’ll have to handle client side events to get and set the value of the corresponding cell you want to edit. For the WebDateChooser these client side events are already handled so you don’t need to write additional JS.
I’m attaching a sample for your reference. Please test it on your side and let me know if you have any concerns or questions.

Maya, below is what I have (it won't let me add an attachment). I have a couple of problems; 1) the edit template is aligned to the top of the row, not the bottom, which causes part of it to be off screen and it won't scroll up, 2) the dropdowns are not popluated. I followed your example, but I must not be doing something right. Please help. Also, how do I get the data from the controls in the edit template? Thanks
