This is a page lifecycle issue. Can you post your code?

above is the code of the user control that contains the datagrid
DataGrid1,which has a button column with linkbuttons,i gave the command
name as select,what seems to happen is that when I click on the button
so as to fire itemcommand event the postback to the server seems to
suppress it,if i put datagrid databinding in !postback the datagrid will
not diplay,if i can fire itemcommand i have an event handler which gets
invoked and puts a new tab in the menu by doing arraylist.add and a new
different user control being loaded,I dont need the grid once the button
is clicked in the grid.
