Hi dev_here,

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

Ok that works but how do i get the text to show up in the column?

For example the code in .aspx

<asp:HyperLink ID="link" runat="server" ForeColor="blue" Text='<% #DataBinder.Eval(Container,"DataItem.Name")  %>'>

</asp:HyperLink>

How can i change it to code behind:

link.Text=DataBinder.Eval(Container,"DataItem.Name")?????

Hi dev_here, 

It should look something similar to:

link.Text = ((DataRowView)(((TemplateContainer)container).DataItem)).Row["Name"].ToString();

Let me know if this works for you.

This works..but if i have beaviors enabled then if i sort it gives me an object reference error. I am adding the above said code to InitializeRow .

Is there a way to make behaviors work on child grid when you have hyperlinks in child grid?

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!

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.
