Inline Editing of List Item in Sharepoint 2010

In this article we will see how to enable inline editing in sharepoint 2010.

Before that we need to know what does Inline Editing means. Inline editing means we can edit and save the list item in the same line itself. You do not need to go to the editing page. In the same page view itself you will be able to edit the list item.

Here first of all we will create a sharepoint list and after that we will enable the inline editing. Following are the steps to do it:

Step 1: Click on the Site Actions link and navigate to MoreOptions link as shown in the below screen shot.

Step 4: After adding the columns to the custom list add 2-3 items to it.

Step 5: Now to make inline editing feature enable on this list we need to modify the current view. To modify the current view click on the Modify View link as shown in below screen shot.

After doing these steps our inline editing is enabled for the current view.

Step 7: Take the mouse pointer on the list item. You will be able to see one image button as shown in the screen shot. Click on it you will see textboxes in that particular list item.
