unable to access some grid data

[threeo]

anyone know why.....

i have a grid on a page which has 3 colums and looks like this:

EDIT | 25067 | 78655
EDIT | 19876 | 23478
EDIT | 78545 | 87554

when i attempt to access the data from the grid like:

ogrid.Items(0).Cells(1).Text i get "25067"

which is what i would expect.

but for some reason i can NOT access the data in the last column...

ogrid.Items(0).Cells(2).Text i get ""

in fact, all column 3 items come out as ""

ogrid.Items(0).Cells(2).Text i get ""
ogrid.Items(1).Cells(2).Text i get ""
ogrid.Items(2).Cells(2).Text i get ""

anyone know why???

I juste created a quick sample to test. I created a grid with a template column. I was able to access the text value of the cell of the template column with the code that you were originally using.

'I just did a response.write after the grid was bound.
ogrid.Items(0).Cells(2).Text

so, I am not sure where you are calling the code to grab the value. Your original code should work.

wow...
now i'm really confused.
i can clearly see my grid on the page with the data
i also did a
Response.Write(oGridAttributes.Items(0).Cells(2).Text)
and still get ""

i guess i will have to chalk this one up as "unsolvable" and store the values in a hidden field.

damnit

i wonder if this would duplicate the problem....

do a postback to the page but leave your grid unaffected (so now you've lost the dataset it is bound to)

and THEN try to response.write the cell data

also: did the cell you grabbed the data on.....did it have an edit template?

mine does (although the edit wasn't clicked)

A postback does not affect my results. Yes the template column has a textbox in the edititem. You are doing something wrong somewhere that you are overlooking. Maybe you can post all of your codebehind.
