What grid view type, exactly? Forms? ASP.NET? any other?
And also, would you display the purpose of it? If a user selects a row, the data in the selection is already quite visible, why confuse the user by duplicating it?

Solution 1

you have 3 ways to show.

1. use selectedindexchanged event, in which you can get the values of a selected index (row values) and pass it to textboxes

2. Use Editindex event , with which you can directly chnage the values by placing textboxes inside the gridview

3. use row command event

Solution 2

its simple to use gridview editing with text boxes in edit item templates..
you can simply bind data to textboxes in edit item templates..

by selecting edit data bindings of text box
choose custom binding
in code expression add

Eval("dataset field")

Hi jinu kannur,
Yeah ur right, we can use command field-edit,update,cancel to edit gridview. But our requirement was click on any gridview row and same gridview values reflected on text boxes and at this point i got stuck:(
