DataGrid question

hello friends,

i have a question about datagrid,
i have binded a datagrid with a datatable from values that came from a comma
seperated values (.CSV) file

i have created textboxes in all datagrid cells on the ItemDataBound event
and put text from each cell to the new text box in that cell,
until this point every thing is OK,
that client can see all values reside in these text boxes in the datagrid
and he can edit them,
but the problem is like this ;
i have an update button and in its event i am iterating throuhg all datagrid
items and for each cell in the datagrid i want to get back the value from the
text box in it,

but i cant find a text box in the cell.Controls,
i think this is because i have created them dynamically they just appear
after postback the page,
please can anyone help me on this or have an alternate solution ..

thank you all.

Instead of creating textboxes dynamically you should use templated columns
and put a textbox in the item template.

Hello, I have two questions... I have a datagrid. I'm capturing the cell via HitTestInfo. The first question is fairly simple.

Ok, I know how to count the number of selected datagrid rows using the code below. What has me stumped is how to determine when the selected rows within a datagrid have been changed. The DataGrid object doesn't seem to have a any type of a selection changed type of event I can grab. THE QUESTION: Does anyone know how to determine when the selected row or set of rows within a datagrid has changed ??? This is driving me nuts !

Hi guys, I'm not sure if this question belongs to FAQ, but I couldn't find a concrete answer. I created a Datagrid control using ItemTemplate, but it's NOT a in-place editing datagrid. One of the columns of the data grid contains a DropDownlist. I managed to create this datagrid control as follows.

Hi all I'm a former Access developer who would like to implement a many-to-many relation in about the same way you do in Access: With a subform and a combo box. Is it possible to use a combobox in a datagrid? Any other suggestions/articles on how to implement many-many relations in the frontend (which of course are 2 one-many relations)?

I have a DataGrid control for which I have also created several new extended DataGridColumnStyles. They behave pretty nicely, but I can't figure out how to implement Selected Item formatting for them. In a plain vanilla DataGrid, when you click on the RowHeader, the appropriate row changes colors. I ASSUME this should be done in the Paint (or PaintText) override of the DataGridColumnStyle in question. My problem is that I don't know...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
