You can try using the OnRowDataBound attribute to do something like this

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) {     if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header)     {         //HeaderStuff     }     if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)     {         ObjectTye objectType = (ObjectType)e.Row.DataItem;         // and doing some stuff with the properties         e.Row.Cells[0].Text = objectType.SomeProperty.ToString();         LinkButton deleteLnk = (LinkButton)e.Row.FindControl('lnkDelete');         deleteLnk.Attributes.Add('onclick', 'javascript:return ' +              'confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this')');         deleteLnk.CommandArgument = e.Row.RowIndex.ToString();     } } protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e) {     int rowIndex = int.Parse(e.CommandArgument.ToString());     GridViewRow row = GridView1.Rows[rowIndex];      ObjectType objectType = new ObjectType();     objectType.StringProperty = row.Cells[0].Text; }
