Hi, To edit data in gridview, use the showeditbutton=true option, this will create a column with edit button for all the rows,
U have to use textbox for the columns to be edited in the EditItem Template of the gridview,
When u click the the edit button the textboxes will be generated for the clicked row and u can edit the values
U have to write code for binding the values in the textbox and saving the edited items, only the design for edit is automated in grid view.
use text='<%#Bind("dbcolumnname")%> in the textbox to bind the values.
