Hi, If you have row command or row data bound then you can get the control from the current row event. if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { ImageButton ImageButton1 = (ImageButton)e.Row.FindControl("ImageButton1"); Label lblstate = (Label)e.Row.FindControl("lblState"); } If you want to iterate the grid or datalist then you can get the count of records in the grid and iterate row by row. for (int i = 0; i { GridViewRow dRow = GridView1.Rows[i]; ImageButton ImageButton1 = (ImageButton)dRow.FindControl("ImageButton1"); Label lblstate = (Label)dRow.FindControl("lblState"); } Similarly you can get the datalist.
