Referencing current row (or row num) in ItemCommand
posted

I've looked at pages and pages of documentation and forum threads, but I can't seem to get around this issue. Using the WebDataGrid (.NET 3.5) I have a grid with nine or so templated columns. The first column template is a LinkButton; I have that set up for an ItemCommand to process it (gets the detail data and displays it on another web page). I have my CommandName set up, and what I need to do is either pass the container for that row, or the row index, back to the server side ItemCommand method so I can grap some other fields from that row. Basically, in ItemCommand I need to know what row that LinkButton was clicked.

I've tried everything to get the CommandArgument to pass back the record number but nothing works. I tried the idea presented in another thread, using:

CommandArgument="<%# Container.Cell.Row.Index %>"

but that always gives back the error 'Cell' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.Control'.

So my big question is: In ItemCommand (for a WebDataGrid) how can I either get the current row that the LinkButton was click on (in ItemCommand), or at least get passed back the row index?

I'm frustrated... hope someone can help. Thx.
