Hi Joe,
When you click on an item the row, the datagrid fires an ItemCommand event
and sends along the row details in the event arguments. You can use that
information to get an instance of the datagrid row and from it the contents
of any cell. In the code below, I create an instance of the TableCell object
calling it cellSize. I happen to know that within the grid row, the content
I'm after is in the 2 row (zero-based). Therefore, I can extract the text
and do what I want with it.
I've included the complete source code below for your dining and dancing
pleasure.
Private Sub DataGrid1_ItemCommand _
(ByVal source As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridCommandEventArgs) _
Handles DataGrid1.ItemCommand
Dim cellSize As TableCell
cellSize = e.Item.Cells(2)
Label1.Text = cellSize.Text
End Sub
Does this help?
