Question

I am creating a social network website on visual web developer, and I am using a GridView to generate a list of all Groups with a column as buttons to join this group. so how I access the action listener of the buttons and pass to it the value of the other column?

Answer 1

Well with the information given I can assume you mean listening to the event on each of the buttons generated in a gridview.

As such you would do something like this:

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)     
{

    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)         
    {
         // Get The button from which ever cell the button is in
         Button1.Click += new EventHandler(Button1_Click);


    }

}

void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

}
