Use the debugger to inspect the "row" variable and expand the Cells collection to see what is in each cell and what type it is.

I suspect your column number 3 is not a BoundField.
If you want to get the content of your BoundField, then you can use

C#

row.Cells[2].Text

But, if it is a template field then you need to find the control to which the text is assigned just like you have done for the FileUpload control.
i.g,

C#

Label lbl= (Label) row.FindControl("lblName");

Hope, it helps :)
Please let me know if I am missing something here.

Solution 2

C#

Gridview.Cells[i].Text will return value If it is a <asp:BoundField>

If you hvae Template field . you must find the control first then find the value of it . It will work.

tried change to boundfield instead of asp:TemplateField but still not working

File upload control looses the value in Postback. Did you tried commenting the if condition , it may not be going into if condition because its always false.

try that once, if that is the issue then change the question, and better to have grid field from aspx page which you are trying to get in cs file.
