I have a grid view in my project. Each record has a command event EDIT that allows the user to update the records.My professor would like me to have ONLY ONE edit button that will allow all the records in the grid view will be inside a text box to be edited. And if any of the records inside the grid view edited, the edit button will become an UPDATE button and will save the changes inside the grid view. Any help?

What is it that you need help with? What have you tried? What was the problem with what you have tried? Why don't you ask your boss/lead for guidance? That is their job after all.

What you really want is to show all rows in Edit Mode. Then when the button is clicked you loop through and process each row.

An example:
