Now i want to retrieve all the data from that gridview and fill it into my table(MySql table)..

How can i do that???

Please help…!!

You can run a foreach on your gridview control & reference each individual Template Control or by using Eval. Something like

try{
 foreach (GridViewRow gr in YourGridView.Rows)
 {
    TextBox tb1 = ((TextBox) gr.FindControl("YourControlId1")).Text;
    TextBox tb2 = ((TextBox) gr.FindControl("YourControlId2")).Text;
    // Insert to Database here
    // Open Connection ; ExecuteNonQuery();
  }
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
   // log exception
}
