LinkButtons in a DataGrid blanks out my complete DataGrid (WTF !!)

[BTHOMASinOHIO]

OKay, I am starting to pull my hair out here !!

Everytime I click on either of my two LinkButtons (in the DataGrid),
it complete wipes out my DataGrid !! (gone !!)

Why in the world is it doing this !?!?

If it helps, here is the HTML part for the DataGrid:

<asp:datagrid id="DataGrid1" runat="server" Width="662px"
Height="163px" EnableViewState="False"
AutoGenerateColumns="False" Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="10pt"
ForeColor="Black" CellSpacing="1"
CellPadding="3" BorderWidth="1px" HorizontalAlign="Left"
BorderStyle="Groove" BorderColor="LightGray"
BackColor="WhiteSmoke">
<SelectedItemStyle Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White"
BackColor="#9471DE"></SelectedItemStyle>
<ItemStyle ForeColor="Transparent" BackColor="White"></ItemStyle>
<HeaderStyle Font-Size="12pt" Font-Names="Verdana"

<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox id=checkbox1 runat="server" Checked='<%#

</asp:CheckBox>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox id=checkbox2 runat="server" Checked='<%#
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "status") %>'>
</asp:CheckBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn
DataField="hidden_survey_id_number"></asp:BoundColumn>
</Columns>
<PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" ForeColor="Black"
BackColor="#C6C3C6"></PagerStyle>
</asp:datagrid>

I can't even get a Response.Write to fire in the DataGrid1_ItemCommand
Function:

Private Sub DataGrid1_ItemCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridCommandEventArgs) Handles
DataGrid1.ItemCommand
Response.Write("HELLO")
End Sub

I have some people responding that the DataGrid Binding has to do with
it? If so, I'm not making the connection !!

TIA
