Get value from Cell B1 and C1 from Datagrid

[Mark B]

I'd like to display the values of cells B1 and C1 from a datagrid (i.e. the
2nd and 3rd columns of the first row) on another part of the aspx page in
large text. This is because these are important sales figures.

Is is possible to return each of those two values so I can include them in a
<% =.............. %> ?

Something like <% =Datagrid1.RowColumn(1,2).Value %>

Hi

write a public function like this...

public string ReturnCalculateValue()
{
return GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Text + " " +
GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[2].Text;

}

and call it in other part of the page using

<asp:Label ID="lblsomelabel" runat="server">"<%
=ReturnCalculateValue() %>"</asp:Label>

Best of luck

Thanks. One of the cells is a template cell which calls a function. It is
not returning any data even though the grid displays data.

Hello Mark,

We can call FindControl method on the template cell to get the control with
the value in need. Suppose there's a Label control whose id is lblText in
the template, the ReturnCalculateValue function can be writtern in this way:

public string ReturnCalculateValue()
{
Label lbl =
(Label)GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].FindControl("lblText");
return lbl.Text;
}
