Trying to use FindControl

I am trying to get the text of an item in a GridView, but am doing something
wrong. Can someone help me with the correct C# statement I need? Below is my
GridView and my attempt to get the control. Thank you.

string option =
((TextBox)dgDro pDownMenus.Item s[e.Item.ItemInde x].FindControl("t xtName")).Text;

Hi,
It should be:
DataGrid dgDropDownMenus = (DataGrid)sende r;
if(e.Item.ItemT ype.ToString() != "Header" && e.Item.ItemType .ToString() !=
"Footer")
{
string option = ((TextBox )e.Item.FindCon trol("txtName") ).Text;
}

Although i have written this code for Datagrid, you can use same for
gridview with little or no modification.
Thanks and Regards,
Manish Bafna.

Thanks, but I get an error: Object reference not set to an instance of an
object. Any idea on why that is happening?

I had to change your code where you had the "as TextBox" because it caused an
error to the following:

this.dgDropDown Menus.EditItemI ndex = e.Item.ItemInde x;
TextBox option =
(TextBox)dgDrop DownMenus.Items[this.dgDropDown Menus.EditItemI ndex].FindControl("t xtName");

Then I got the following error: error: identifier 'option' out of scope,
when I checked the object "option" after running the code. It was not a run
time error, I did a quick watch.

I appreciate your patience and help in trying to help me figure this out.

Hi,
so finally it was solved or you r still getting some errors?

I had to change your code where you had the "as TextBox" because it caused an
error to the following:

this.dgDropDown Menus.EditItemI ndex = e.Item.ItemInde x;
TextBox option =
(TextBox)dgDrop DownMenus.Items[this.dgDropDown Menus.EditItemI ndex].FindControl("t xtName");

Then I got the following error: error: identifier 'option' out of scope,
when I checked the object "option" after running the code. It was not a run
time error, I did a quick watch.

I appreciate your patience and help in trying to help me figure this out.

can you please tell at which line you are getting this error?Most probably

It should be:

if(e.Item.ItemT ype.ToString() != "Header" && e.Item.ItemType .ToString() !=
"Footer")
{
string option = ((TextBox )e.Item.FindCon trol("txtName") ).Text;
}

Although i have written this code for Datagrid, you can use same for
gridview with little or no modification.

Hi,
I think the error u r getting in quick watch is the bug in the microsoft
product.See below link:
http://www.kbalertz.com/Feedback_814828.aspx
I think you r now able to get text of textbox in datagrid.
