Access ASPxComboBox from DataItemTemplate in current context

问题

I am trying to access my combobox in my codebehind file C# but I keep getting an error that says 'cmbYearOfStudy' does not exist in the current context

This is the C# code that is giving the error name of file => BulkScheduleAllocation.aspx.cs

private void PopulateScheduleAcademicYearCombo()
    {
        for (var iYear = DateTime.Now.Year + 5; iYear >= 1999; iYear--)
        {
            var oItem = new ListEditItem(iYear.ToString(), iYear.ToString());
            cmbYearoOfStudy.Items.Add(oItem);
        }
        cmbYearOfStudy.DataBind();

        Utils.PopulateCombobox(ref cmbYearOfStudy, Request.QueryString["acyr"]);
    }

This is the aspx code name of file => BulkScheduleAllocation.aspx

The 'cmbYearOfStudy' control is hold by the DataItemTemplate and is created for each row, and should be accessible respectively. It is possible to use the The general technique of using the Init/Load event handler approach to access the required control directly:

<dx:GridViewDataColumn ...>
    <DataItemTemplate>
        <dx:ASPxComboBox ID="cmbYearOfStudy" ... OnInit="cmbYearOfStudy_Init"></dx:ASPxComboBox>
    </DataItemTemplate>
</dx:GridViewDataColumn>

protected void cmbYearOfStudy_Init(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    ASPxComboBox cmbYearOfStudy = (ASPxComboBox)sender;

    for (var iYear = DateTime. Now.Year + 5; iYear >= 1999; iYear--) {
        var oItem = new ListEditItem(iYear.ToString(), iYear.ToString());
        cmbYearOfStudy.Items.Add(oItem);
    }
    //cmbYearOfStudy.DataBind(); //not required when adding .Items manually

    Utils.PopulateCombobox(ref cmbYearOfStudy, Request.QueryString["acyr"]);
}

You have grvEnrollmentDetails GridView in your page. The ComboBox cmbYearOfStudy is only inside GridView, respectively in each row of the table except the header and footer. If could binded data to ComboBox, you must do it in event of creating table row.

Now, some changes in your code.

In aspx code file BulkScheduleAllocation.aspx:

<dx:ASPxGridView ID="grvEnrollmentDetails" runat="server" KeyFieldName="ModuleEnrollmentId" SettingsPager-Mode="ShowAllRecords" OnRowCreated="grvEnrollmentDetails_OnRowCreated">

In codebehind file BulkScheduleAllocation.aspx.cs:

protected void grvEnrollmentDetails_OnRowCreated(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        ComboBox cmbYearoOfStudy = (ComboBox)e.Row.FindControl("cmbYearoOfStudy");
        for (var iYear = DateTime.Now.Year + 5; iYear >= 1999; iYear--)
        {
            var oItem = new ListEditItem(iYear.ToString(), iYear.ToString());
            cmbYearoOfStudy.Items.Add(oItem);
        }
    }
}

Combobox exists is only available within a data row of GridView.
