Try this:

C#

foreach(var item in DataList1.Items)
    string text = item.Controls[0].Text;

More detail needed in the question for a more detailed answer!

I noticed you posted that this wasn't working - we'll need more details to give you a better answer - what exactly does your data list contain?

If you provide code and more detail you're much more likely to get a decent answer ;)

datalist is like this

XML

<asp:DataList ID="DataList1" runat="server" OnItemCommand="DataList1_ItemCommand">
                        <HeaderTemplate>
                            Roleid Rolename description
                        </HeaderTemplate>
                        <ItemTemplate>
                            <table width="100%">
                                <tr>
                                    <td>
                                        <asp:Label ID="lblid11" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("ROLE_ID") %>' />
                                    </td>
                                    <td>
                                        <asp:Label ID="lblid12" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("ROLE_NAME") %>' />
                                    </td>
                                    <td>
                                        <asp:Label ID="lblid13" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("DESCRIPTION") %>' />
                                    </td>
                                    <td>
                                        <asp:Button ID="btninside" runat="server" CommandName="call" Text="click me" />
                                    </td>
                                </tr>
                            </table>
                        </ItemTemplate>

                    </asp:DataList>

in button click if you want the label data (label is inside the datalist)
if this button is outside the datalist
you can get the label text like this

<asp:button id="btntest" runat="server" text="Test" onclick="btntest_Click" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

C#

protected void btntest_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        foreach (DataListItem item in DataList1.Items)
        {
            lblm.Text += "," + ((Label)(item.FindControl("lblid11"))).Text;
        }
    }

if your button is inside the datalist you can access like this

C#

 protected void DataList1_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "call")
 {
 DataListItem item=(DataListItem)(((Button) (e.CommandSource)).NamingContainer);
 string text = ((Label)item.FindControl("lblid12")).Text;
}
}
