Hi all,

I need to read the allcolumns of a row in a gridview. I use the following code to do so.

C#

foreach (GridViewRow row in gridvw.Rows)
          {
              DataRow dr;
              dr = table.NewRow();

              //string str = gridvw.Rows(0).Cells(0).Text;
              for (int i =0; i < row.Cells.Count-1; i++)
              {
                  dr[i] = row.Cells[i].Text.Replace("&nbsp;", " ");
              }
              table.Rows.Add(dr);
          }

Am adding all the values to a table. The above code returns nothing for the first 2 columns of each and every row.

Can anybody help on this issue?

Thanks in Advance,

Joseph

you might have first two columns as item templates which contains some other controls inside due to which .TEXT may retun string.Empty

Use

C#

row.Cells[i].FindControl('YourControlName')

i.e.

C#

//If you have a textBox inside
TextBox objText = (TextBox) row.Cells[i].FindControl('YourTextBoxId');
string value = objText.Text;
