Inputs empty on post-back despite having values.

I'm using a telerik RadGrid, with a UserControl edit form. When the InsertCommand event fires, I get the user control, and find edit controls on it, but there Text properties are all string.Empty.

What is the recommended way to place a RadElement instance on a Form? Below is code from my form constructor. My goal is that the form would show a scrollbar if sized small enough.

Telerik RADGrid Self-Referencing Hierarchy Parent Row Modifications

I posted this on their forums, but so far haven't heard anything back (which is getting more commonplace and a little disconcerting to be honest). If anyone can help me here that would be awesome!
