I have a datagrid that contains a template column. In this column I have two controls: The first control is an input field, the second is an asp:button control. The user can enter a value in the input field and select the button (Save) control. When the save button is selected, the Handle_Grid_Event fires as it should, but how do I get the value of this input control within the Handle_Grid_Event?

You could do this:
- Keep the template column, but get rid of the button
- Add a button column to the datagrid (Select)
- Change the select button's text to "Save"
- In the DataGrid's SelectCommand function in your code
behind, do something like:
Dim textvalue as string
textvalue = e.cells(1).controls(1).Value
or you may have to do
Dim text as new Textbox
text = e.cells(1).controls(1)
and get the text value that way (don't have vs.net here at work, so can't remember the exact syntax. Something along the lines of above anyway)
