Solution 1

When you assign the IDs you assign ItemIndex+1, but when you access the control in your command event you use ItemIndex. So your first box is myTextBox1 but your code looks for myTextBox0.

C#

protected void myRepeater_ItemCommand(object source, RepeaterCommandEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CommandName == "myfunction")
    {
        // add the "+ 1" here too
        string textbox = (e.Item.ItemIndex + 1).ToString();

I posted the amendment I made in my solution, you need to add "+1" in your ItemCommand event handler.
