I think you want to use grid.SelectedIndex or grid.SelectedItem in this
event instead of the generic EventArgs.
If you defined a DataKeyField attribute on your grid you can do something
like so instead the event:
Dim KeyID = Ctype(grid.DataKeys(grid.SelectedIndex), integer)
Another approach is to use the ItemCommand event instead (which gets fired
prior to the more specific SelectedIndexChanged). Note: in the ItemCommand
event your grid.SeletecIndex is the previously selected row, not the current
one (it doesn't change until SelectedIndexChanged fires).
Protected Sub HandleCommand(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As
DataGridCommandEventArgs) Handles grid.ItemCommand
If e.CommandName = "Select" Then
Dim KeyID As Integer = CType(grid.DataKeys(e.Item.ItemIndex),
Integer)
End If
End Sub

What I want to do is to retrive the value from the row
that was selected by uesr. I added the "Select" command
column and linked the select event to one of my method by
setting my DataGrid's attribute:
OnSelectedIndexChanged="OnSelectRow"
Now comes the problem. Even though I can invoke this
OnSelectRow method, I can only do so when I have the
following signiture:
Protected Sub OnSelectRow(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
This doesn't help me because System.EventArgs doesn't give
me what I need.
Can somebody help me on how to do this? What signiture
should I use in this case?
Thanks
