Inside row databound, get the column object by the following code

Label TestLabel = (Label)e.Row.FindControl("MyLabel");
   TestLabel.Text= "Hello";

Then assign any property value to it.

Write in gridview row command event args

here the command name is click

declare string value=string.empty;

if(e.commnadName=="click")
{

//if you put the text box find the text box
Gridviewrow row= gridview1.rows[2] as gridviewrow

textbox txtid=row.fincontrol("txtid in item template");

value=txtid.Text; // Here you can read the value in the textbox ;

}

inform me, you get it or not
