selecting row using link button in gridview

Hi,
Here is an example:

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="TableSeq"
            DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" OnSelectedIndexChanged="GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged">
            <Columns>
                <asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("TableSeq") %>'
                            CommandName="Select" Text="Select" oncommand="LinkButton1_Command"></asp:LinkButton>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="TableSeq" HeaderText="TableSeq" ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="TableSeq" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="Text" HeaderText="Text" SortExpression="Text" />
            </Columns>
            <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#FF6666" />
        </asp:GridView>

In this code, LinkButton1_Command will fire first and then GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged will fire. You can use e.CommandArgument, e.CommandName in the LinkButton1_Command.

Cheers.
