Disabling Link Button Column in Datagrid

[Guest]

Hello world,



I have a simple datagrid on asp.net web form , in which I am showing a
single button column called EDIT. The code in the .aspx files for the same is
as below.

<asp:ButtonColumn HeaderText="" ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Edit"
CommandName="EditRec">
<ItemStyle Font-Bold="false" VerticalAlign="Top"
HorizontalAlign="left" Width="30" Height="35"></ItemStyle>
</asp:ButtonColumn>

Currently, I am displaying this Edit link button for every record in the
datagrid. I want to know how can i selectively disable EDIT link button for
few records based on what value is in any single datagrid column. I need to
disable it through the code and NOT when the user does anything on the screen.

(I am using ASP.NET 1.1)

Any ideas

thanks all

Try doing it in the ItemDataBound

thank you patrick. I have solved the problem myself . Following is what I did

1) Added a template column and inside it i added a linkButton server control.
2) The enabled property of the link button was set as below

<asp:LinkButton id="LinkButton1" Enabled =
'<%#Convert.ToInt16(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"employeeid"))==1?Convert.ToBoolean("True"):Convert.ToBoolean("False")%>' runat="server">

cheers!
