change the text of cells of a column

[Billow]

Hello

I'd like to change the text of cells of a column which
has been set as a buttonColumn and bounded to a datafield.
I have tried to change its texts with code,but met a setback. Beneath
here is what I have tried:
hyst=menuDataGrid.Items[theboundcolumm].Cells.Text;
//------hyst=""----The returned string was empty, why?
menuDataGrid.Items[theboundcolumm].Cells.Text="the words";
//----The effect showed on the brower was the clicked link was
disappearing. Why? And how can i do ??

Since it's buttonColumn, you should deal with button (inside the cell) rather
than cell.

LinkButton linkBtn =
(LinkButton)menuDataGrid.Items[row_index].Cells[theboundcolumm_index].Controls[0];
hyst = linkBtn.Text;
