Question

I cannot seem to get the value of a cell in a gridview to use in a stored procedure. Here is my aspx:

<asp:GridView ID="gvData" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" SkinID="GridView" DataKeyNames="Check Config">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Config ID" DataField="Check Config"></asp:BoundField>
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Check Configuration" DataField="Check Configuration" />
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Shift" DataField="Shift" />
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Earliest Time" DataField="Earliest Time" />
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Alarm Time" DataField="Alarm Date" />
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Disposition" DataField="Disposition" />
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Disable">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <asp:CheckBox runat="server" ID="RowLevelCheckBox" />
                    </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>
            </Columns>
        </asp:GridView>

And here is my code-behind wherein I’m trying to get the value of the first column/cell in the gridview for a stored procedure parameter. In this case I am looking to get the value of “Config ID” but get 0 back each time. It’s been a while since I’ve been back into ASP.NET but this project calls for it.

try
        {
            foreach (GridViewRow dr in gvData.Rows)
            {
                CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)dr.Cells[6].FindControl("RowLevelCheckBox");
                if (chk.Checked)
                {
                    recordCount += 1;
                    int theConfigID = Convert.ToInt32(dr.Cells[0].FindControl("Config ID").ToString());
                    //cancel these alarms in DB 
                    command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@CHECK_SCHEDULE_ID", theConfigID));
                    command.ExecuteNonQuery();

                    //return status and msg
                    lblStatusMessage.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkGreen;
                    lblStatusMessage.Text = string.Format("{0} alarm(s) were successfully cancelled.", recordCount);
                    lblStatusMessage.Visible = true;
                }
            }
        }

Answer 1

how about just dr.Cells[0].Text?
