Getting value of a GridView cell

[TisMe]

Hi All,

Can anyone help me out here?

I am trying to get the value of a GV cell, code is below (Obviously
not useful - But this is what I have ended up with during my testing).

I have bound columns and template columns - e.Row.Cells[i].text() is
always an empty string!

Cheers!
Simon.

protected void GVContacts_RowCreated(object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{

for (int i = 0; i < e.Row.Cells.Count; i++)
{
this.Label1.Text += e.Row.Cells[i].text();
}
}
}

Weird that it's empty and not throwing an exception or even a
compilation error. text() doesn't exist, it should be Text. It's a
property not a method. So...

this.Label1.Text += e.Row.Cells[i].Text;

Hi,
You have the code in the Row created handler. Is it possible that the
data is not bound yet?
Have you tried the RowDataboundEvent?

That's because DataGridViewCells store their data in the Value property.
What you're looking for is:

e.Row.Cells[i].Value.ToString();

Chris, thanks but there doesnt seem to be a value property!?...
