buttons fail to appear in EditCommandColumn of DataGrid

[Matt]

hi,

I have a datagrid with an EditCommandColumn in it, but only one of the
buttons (Edit) is displayed. Does anyone know why this would be? It
seems like it would be a simple problem but I haven't seen any similar
postings. Pushing the button works, but the update button remains
missing. Link buttons produce similar behavior.

Here's the code:

<asp:datagrid id="discDataGrid" runat="server" Width="1000px"
Font-Names="Arial" OnEditCommand="rejectFile" DataKeyField="filename"
OnUpdateCommand="acceptFile" PageSize="5" AllowPaging="True"
OnPageIndexChanged="discDataGrid_Paging"
OnSortCommand="discDataGrid_Sorting" CellPadding="3"
HeaderStyle-BackColor="#cfcfcf"
AlternatingItemStyle-BackColor="#dddddd" BorderColor="Black"
AllowSorting="True" Font-size="8pt" AutoGenerateColumns="False">

<Columns>

(other columns)

<asp:EditCommandColumn ButtonType=PushButton EditText="Reject"
UpdateText="Accept"></asp:EditCommandColumn>

</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>

Thanks in advance,
matt

Hi Matt

In EditCommandColumn When the Edit button for an item is clicked, the
EditCommand event is raised and the Edit button is replaced with the
Update and Cancel command buttons. Edit and Update both cannot be
displayed together Instead of this use Two SelectCommandColumn for
your functionality,one for Accept and reject But definetly you cannot
use EditCommandcolumn for this

I hope this clears your doubt

Thanks
