Question

I have a web page containing a grid view and need to display the data in the text box on page load instead of cell.

** Grid is read only
** There will not be edit/delete links.
is it possible ?

Thanks in advance.

You can use gridview templates fields, and you will find more about Using TemplateFields in the GridView Control
You can do something like this

 <asp:TemplateField>
       <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:TextBox ID="txbType" Text='<%# Eval("fieldName") %>' Enabled="false" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
       </ItemTemplate>
    </asp:TemplateField> 

In here <%# Eval("fieldName") %> — fieldName should be the value need to be display from your DB
