Question

I have to insert fix number of rows to gridview. I am not using database and also not creating row one by one.

I initially want 7 rows with 3 column, with first column having text stored in my array.

I am creating gridview as,

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" Height="146px"
        OnLoad="row_created" Width="308px">
        <Columns>
            <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Day" />
            <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Available rooms">
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="txt1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:TemplateField>
            <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Price">
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="txt2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:TemplateField>
        </Columns>
    </asp:GridView>

Answer 1

why not creating a class object then bind it to the grid, set default values for index to display it as Row Number, and all other members Day, price and Rooms filled back from user

something like:

 class MyObject
  {
     public int Index { get; set; }
     public string Day { get; set; }
     public decimal Price { get; set; }
     public string Rooms { get; set; }
   }

use it like this

List<MyObject> lst = new List<MyObject>();
lst.Add(new MyObject { Index = 1});
lst.Add(new MyObject { Index = 2});

p.s.: Names and usage is just for explaining the idea
