Thanks for quick reply m8 :)

Tried similar earlier aswell but i get following parser error:
Parser Error Message: Databinding expressions are only supported on objects that have a DataBinding event. System.Web.UI.WebControls.CommandField does not have a DataBinding event.

Heres html side from gridview
<asp:CommandField ShowEditButton="True" EditText='<%#getEditText()%>' UpdateText='upd' CancelText='canc'></asp:CommandField>

ohh..
thats for command field!!?
sorry.
u can try by code your funtion in the RowCreated or rowCommand event of the gridView
i did the same in one of my project. but i user Datagrid, it having event called ItemCreated..... you try with the grid view, if not then come to datagrid

try and reply(if u have time)

Found a way to work around it, just converted commandfield to templatefield and then in text properties function calls work.

Well code generated to grid inside columns tag is just simply:

<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="True" CommandName="Update"
Text='<%# GetText("Update") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton2" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" CommandName="Cancel"
Text='<%# GetText("Cancel") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" CommandName="Edit"
Text='<%# GetText("Edit") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
