Below are my code sample.
<asp:GridView ID="StoresGridView"    OnDataBound="StoresGridView_DataBound"
          Runat="server"
          AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="Store"
          BorderWidth="1px" BackColor="LightGoldenrodYellow"
          GridLines="None" CellPadding="2" BorderColor="Tan"
          ForeColor="Black">
            <FooterStyle BackColor="Tan"></FooterStyle>
            <PagerStyle ForeColor="DarkSlateBlue"
              HorizontalAlign="Center" BackColor="PaleGoldenrod">
            </PagerStyle>
            <HeaderStyle Font-Bold="True"
              BackColor="Tan"></HeaderStyle>
            <AlternatingRowStyle
              BackColor="PaleGoldenrod"></AlternatingRowStyle>
            <Columns>

                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Store"
                  InsertVisible="False" DataField="Store"
                    SortExpression="Store">
                    <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
                </asp:BoundField>
</Columns>
            <SelectedRowStyle ForeColor="GhostWhite"
                BackColor="DarkSlateBlue"></SelectedRowStyle>
        </asp:GridView>
Below my Code-
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnInit(e);
            AddLinkButton();
        }
        protected void StoresGridView_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            AddLinkButton();
        }
        /// <summary>
        /// Add a LinkButton To GridView Row.
        /// </summary>
        private void AddLinkButton()
        {
            foreach (GridViewRow row in StoresGridView.Rows)
            {
                if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
                {
                    LinkButton lb = new LinkButton();
                    lb.ID = "lnk";
                    lb.Text=row.Cells[0].Text;
                    lb.CommandName = "StoreDetail";
                    lb.Command += lnk_Command;
                    row.Cells[0].Controls.Add(lb);
                }
            }
        }
Here i am expecting linkbutton should invoked
     protected void lnk_Command(object sender, CommandEventArgs e)        {
            if (e.CommandName == "StoreDetail")
            {
                //This is to test
                Response.Write("You Press Link Button!");
            }
        }
Is anyone Know about this ? or any suggestion on the same.

Hey this is just for reference... This is the code I wrote to create buttons dynamically it in my page and add it in my panel.. It may not fit to your requirement.. I am just sharing this code to show how to generate Buttons Dynamically. My main aim in my project was to create buttons dynamically and add it in the page. The above answer I have written may be correct since it calls the Link Button Click Event. Try to refer your requirement with this code... Hope it may help you out..... protected void ShowImageButton() { try { con = new SqlConnection(connectionString); con.Open(); cmd = new SqlCommand(Select BrandID BrandImg BrandName from CCSBrands where BrandActive = 1 ORDER BY BrandName con); dr = cmd.ExecuteReader(); int val = GetBrandCount(); Button[] myButton = new Button[val]; if (dr.HasRows) { for (int i = 0; i { myButton[i] = new Button(); } int count = 0; while (count { while (dr.Read()) { myButton[count].Width = 150; myButton[count].Height = 150; myButton[count].BorderColor = Color.Black; myButton[count].BorderWidth = 1; myButton[count].ID = dr[BrandID].ToString(); myButton[count].CssClass = BrandImage; myButton[count].Style.Add(Cursor pointer); myButton[count].Style.Add(width 150); myButton[count].Style.Add(height 150); myButton[count].Style.Add(padding-top 7px); myButton[count].Style.Add(margin-top 7px); myButton[count].Style.Add(background-repeat no-repeat); myButton[count].ToolTip = dr[BrandName].ToString(); myButton[count].Style.Add(background-image dr[BrandImg].ToString()); pnlBrandData.Controls.Add(myButton[count]); pnlBrandData.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(   )); myButton[count].Click += new EventHandler(BrandButton_Click); count++; } } } }

Try adding this in your If Condition... lb.Click += new EventHandler(lnk_Command); if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { LinkButton lb = new LinkButton(); lb.ID = lnk; lb.Text=row.Cells[0].Text; lb.CommandName = StoreDetail; lb.Click += new EventHandler(lnk_Command); row.Cells[0].Controls.Add(lb); } PLEASE MARK THE ANSWER AS ACCEPTED IF IT HELPED YOU!!!

I think the AddLinkButotn() needs some modifications. Why are you adding a linkbutton to every record when you are calling this method in DataBound(). Try the below code and see if it works. private void AddLinkButton() { if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { LinkButton lb = new LinkButton(); lb.ID = lnk; lb.Text=row.Cells[0].Text; lb.CommandName = StoreDetail; lb.Command += lnk_Command; row.Cells[0].Controls.Add(lb); } }
