Hi Bineesh VP: In general There are mainly two way of taking the cell value from the gridview 1.Boundfield 2.Templatefield If you used boundfield/autogenerate columns try the below code: ----------------------------------------------- string desc = GridView1.SelectedRow.Cells[0].Text If you used templatefield try the below code: ------------------------------------------------ GridViewRow row = GvBoq_Th01.Rows[e.RowIndex]; desc = ((TextBox)row.FindControl(Txtboqdesc)).Text.ToString().Trim(); Full example in Row command event: --------------------------------- protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender GridViewCommandEventArgs e) { //Determine the RowIndex of the Row whose Button was clicked. int rowIndex = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument); //Reference the GridView Row. GridViewRow row = GridView1.Rows[rowIndex]; //Fetch value of Name. string name = (row.FindControl(txtName) as TextBox).Text; //Fetch value of Country string country = GridView1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[1].Text; } Hope the above code will help for your problemkindly let me know if you still had problem Thanks karthik
