OK. You are making check stating that the row passed to Handler (Is it a Row Created one?) is a Data Row are Not. What are all the Possible row Types available? MSDN gives below one: Member name Description Header A header row of a data control. Header rows cannot be data-bound. Footer A footer row of a data control. Footer rows cannot be data-bound. DataRow A data row of a data control. Only DataRow rows can be data-bound. Separator A row separator. Row separators cannot be data-bound. Pager A row that displays page buttons or a pager control. Pager rows cannot be data-bound. EmptyDataRow A row that displays page buttons or a pager control. Pager rows cannot be data-bound.
