Hi dev_here,

If you need any further assistance with the matter please do not hesitate to ask.

why does this have to be in RowSelectionchanged? because I need to get the id of the row (which is one of the columns) and use that Id to get the link.

So how do i get id?

int id=e.CurrentSelectedRows. ????????

Hello dev_here,

You can get the value of column with key "ID" like this:

int id = Int32.Parse(e.CurrentSelectedRows[0].Items.FindItemByKey("ID").Text);

Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

No i tried enabling viewstate and it doesnt help.i need to define the columns of child grid in the code.

Hello,

I would suggest you to try enabling viewstate or defining the template column in the markup.

Let me know if this helps.

Ok I can sort the column using the sample you provided. But after I sort once all the rows in that column disappear(the ones with the hyperlinks)Is this beacuse they are defined in InitializeRow?

Even if i disable sort on this column and enable sort on all other columns, this seems to happen the same way..Rows qith hyperlinks disappear..Please help!
