How to Access LinkButton.Text

JeffP

I need to know when a link buttons value is zero so I don't try to run a
query to find none.

When I was using ViewState(ds_La st), which I can't do because certain phones
are choking on the data, I have on avg about 12 rows of data.

Apparently that's way too much data for some phones, nearing 30k.

So I've abondoned ViewState and I'm trying to get the value from the
datagrid, I see that it can be done but I may be missing something that will
make it all work.

'This works well... (except for ViewState overhead)
Dim myRow as DataRow = CType(ViewState ("ds_Last"),
DataSet).Tables (0).Rows(e.Item .ItemIndex)
Case Right(sCoMander ,1) = "S"
.... intEventCount = myRow.Item("Sal es")....
If intEventCount >= 1 Then... do stuff load next datagrid of "Sales"

'populate my datagrid
dgFutureSM.Data Source = dsF.Tables(0)
dgFutureSM.Data Bind()

'renders a datagrid similar to.....
|Future Data
SalesPerson, Calls, Apts, Sales, Totals
-------------------------------------

Steve Colbert 32 9 8 49
Rusty Nail 6 1 0 7

<asp:Datagrid ... DataKey="UserID "....
<asp:TemplateCo lumn HeaderText="Sal es"....
<asp:LinkButt on id="btnSelectSM FS" CommandName=="S electSalesSMFS" ....

Selecting Rusty Nail's Sales link button value zero, or any link button
renders an empty string

Pvt Sub dgSM_ItemCmd(by Val Src as obj, byVal e as
Sys.Web.UI.WebC trls.DgCmdEvent Args) handles dgHistorySM.Ite mCmd,
dgFuture.ItemCm d

'get current dg name
Dim dg as DataGrid = e.Items.NamingC ontainer

'get index UserID for nxt sProc
Dim UserID as String = dg.DataKeys(e.I tem.ItemIndex)

'get nxt step, FS, load future sales for respective UserID
Dim sCoMander as String = Right(e.Command Name,2)

'here's where I'm failing, I know which cell it is, I've verified the ID,
however I've stepped thru all of my linkbuttons and their text value = ""
Dim lnkBtnText as String = Ctype(e.Item.Ce lls(1).Controls (1),
LinkButton).Tex t

If I check column(4) which is an <asp:BoundColum n of totals, I do see the
value "7" but not in any of my linkbuttons for columns Calls, Apts and
Sales.

TIA
