Retrieve old value from textbox (Gridview) 1

[aspvbnetnerd]

I am trying to get a value from gridview when trying update a row.

I press edit on the gridview and then type som new information on the textbox and then click update.

On RowUpdating I am trying to catch to the new value that I has entered and then click update.
But I am getting the old text in my string dFName and not the new entered text

protected void GridProjects_RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{

    System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox FieldName2 = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox();
    FieldName2 = ((TextBox)(this.GridProjects.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[10].Controls[0]));
    string dFName = FieldName2.Text;

}

Any help is appreciated

/George

Where are you binding the GridView? on page load? If so, are you checking for a postback?

ca8msm, added the check for a posback and it worked like a charm. Thank you

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {
        initData();
    }
}

void initData()
{

    mDataAdapter = new DataAdapter();
    mDataAdapter.init(mConnectionString);

    SqlDr = mDataAdapter.getProjects();

    GridProjects.DataSource = SqlDr;
    GridProjects.DataBind();

    //clean up
    SqlDr.Close();
    SqlDr = null;
    mDataAdapter.dispose();
    mDataAdapter = null;

}
