DataGrid question

[itgMan]

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.

template columns.
