Hi I am trying to get the value of the textbox of the selected row of the gridview

on the row command event of the gridview I have the following:

C#

TextBox txtAEditTimeDepart = (TextBox)Default._def.GRDTech.SelectedRow.FindControl("txtEditTimeDepart");

how ever it is returning me a null value and an error that it is not referring to anything.

Did you check the content of your SelectedRow? Also, you didn't access the .Text of the textbox.

Try like this:

C#

protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
   {
       try
       {
           if (e.CommandName == "Edit")
           {
               ImageButton img = (ImageButton)e.CommandSource as ImageButton;
               GridViewRow row = img.NamingContainer as GridViewRow;

               TextBox2.Text = ((Label)row.FindControl("txtEditTimeDepart")).Text;
           }

       }
       catch (Exception ex)
       {
           lblstatus.Text = "Error" + ex.ToString();
       }
   }
