The following is the table design from where I am fetching employee records.

Image 1.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Employee](
[Emp_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[Name] [varchar](50) NULL,
[Email] [varchar](500) NULL,
[Designation] [varchar](50) NULL,
[City] [varchar](50) NULL,
[State] [varchar](50) NULL,
[Country] [varchar](50) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Employee] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[Emp_ID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO

The following is the data in my table:

Now my aspx is:

<tr>

<asp:Button ID="btnDeleteRecords" Text="Delete Records" OnClick="btnDeleteRecords_Click"
runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

My aspx.cs code is:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
SqlDataAdapter da;
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
this.BindGrid();
}
private void BindGrid()
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection();
ds = new DataSet();
con.ConnectionString = @"Data Source=INDIA\MSSQLServer2k8; Initial Catalog=EmployeeManagement; Uid=sa; pwd=india;";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE", con);
da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
da.Fill(ds);
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
{
GridViewEmployee.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
GridViewEmployee.DataBind();
}
}
protected void btnDeleteRecords_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.AddRange(new DataColumn[2] { new DataColumn("Name", typeof(string)),
new DataColumn("Email",typeof(string)) });
foreach (GridViewRow row in GridViewEmployee.Rows)
{
if ((row.FindControl("chkSelect") as CheckBox).Checked)
{
int Emp_ID = Convert.ToInt32(GridViewEmployee.DataKeys[row.RowIndex].Value);
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(@"Data Source=INDIA\MSSQLServer2k8; Initial Catalog=EmployeeManagement; Uid=sa; pwd=india;"))
{
con.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("DELETE FROM Employee WHERE Emp_ID=" + Emp_ID, con);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
}
}
}
this.BindGrid();
}
}

Now run the application:

run
                                                                     Image 3

Now select some records using the checkboxes and click on the "Delete Records" button.

delet record
                                                                     Image 4.

output
                                                                  Image 5.
