How to fire event of GridView outside of GridView

Question

How to fire for example OnRowUpdating event of GridView outside of Gridview by external button ? I have 2 buttons for update: one is in gridview in each row which fires event OnRowUpdating =MyGrid_RowUpdating - works fine; and I have stand-alone OK button ( asp : ImageButton ID =imgbtn_UpdateSomething runat =server ... ) outside of Gridview which I also want to generate event OnRowUpdating - I have an complicated event-handler MyGrid_RowUpdating (in which I need to use e of  GridViewUpdateEventArgs e ) which I want to use also for my external OK button.. Is it possible ?

I have resolved it by myself: 1) I set: @ Page ... EnableEventValidation =false %> 2) in event handler of my external OK-button I write: protected void stlacene_UpdatePristupovePrava( object sender System.Web.UI. ImageClickEventArgs e) { RaisePostBackEvent((( ImageButton )(MyGrid.Rows[MyGrid.SelectedIndex /*EditIndex*/ ].Cells[0].FindControl( btn_UpdateRow ))) click ); } btn_UpdateRow are ImageButtons in MyGridView (You must do it by asp : TemplateField .. in GridView )
