Check a CheckBox using Membership ASP:NET

Question

Hi, I have a GirdView listening all Users active in my system using ASP:NET Membership. I would like have a CheckBox that could be SELECTED or NOT depending if a specific user is APPROVED or not. With event handler RowDataBound, my script does not work. Any idea to selected the CheckBox in the appropirate case?

Thanks for your time :-)

        protected void uxUserListDisplayer_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
    {
        // Check or Uncheck a CheckBox depending if user is Approved
        switch (e.Row.RowType)
        {
            // In case type of row is DataRow (a data row of GridView) 
            case DataControlRowType.DataRow:
                // Create an object of type MembershipUser for row bounded (Users)
                MembershipUser myUser = (MembershipUser)e.Row.DataItem;
                // Find out the edit button "uxLinkEditButton" and create an object for it
                LinkButton editButton = (LinkButton)e.Row.FindControl("uxLinkEditButton");
                // Find out the checkbox "uxActiveCheckBoxSelector" and create an object for it
                CheckBox activeCheckBox = (CheckBox)e.Row.FindControl("uxActiveCheckBoxSelector");
                // Check if the Object type MembershipUser for a User is approved or not
                if (myUser.IsApproved == true)
                {
                    activeCheckBox.Checked = true; // Checkbox is checked
                }
                else
                {
                    activeCheckBox.Checked = false; // Checkbox is unchecked
                }
                break;
        }
    }

Answer 1

MembershipUser myUser = (MembershipUser)e.Row.DataItem;
CheckBox activeCheckBox = (CheckBox)e.Row.FindControl("uxActiveCheckBoxSelector");
activeCheckBox.Checked = myUser.IsApproved;

Hope this helps

Hey,

You have to change the myUser variable to a MembershipUser reference; by default, Object doesn't have the property defined...

HTH.
