Could I set TextMode = "Password" ind Editing-Mode of the DataGrid?

[Andreas Semmelmann]

Hello Folks.

I have a DataGrid displaying the conten of a SQL-Database. In this table
exist a Field wich contains Passwords. Firstly I´d liked to change the
Password over the DataGrid. Secondly I´d like to hide the Input of the PW to
the User. I´ve tried the following:

Sub dg_ItemCreated(Sender As Object, E As DataGridItemEventArgs)
Response.Write("<h1>Test</h1>")
If E.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.EditItem Then
Dim tb_pwd As TextBox = CType(E.Item.Cells(2).Controls(0), TextBox)
tb_pwd.Textmode = "Password"

BindData()
End If

End Sub

But this would´nt work. The Event was not fired at all. How can I hide the
Password while the User is typing it in? (like asp:textbox
textmode="Password"). It would be more helpful for me, if the solutions are
in VB.NET, because I`m very new to .NET.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

for doing that in code you should use TextBoxMode
enumeration. So change the line
tb_pwd.Textmode = "Password"
to
tb_pwd.Textmode = TextBoxMode.Password

Hello Svetlin.

Thanks for your fast reply. But your solution doesn`t work. The event
"ItemCreated" was not fired! I don`t now why! Have you any hints why this
could happen?
