I have a webdatagrid with one editable column. I have a save button that does a post back and grabs the values from the grid. Obviously at this point it's too late because the grid .Bind() method has been hit and so the data has essentially been reloaded from the database. How can I grab the fields BEFORE the new values are overwritten?

Thank you for your patience.
Could you tell me if you’re using auto CRUD operations of the grid? That would mean that on “Save” button click the grid will commit the changes to the data source automatically and you won’t be able to get the cell values before the data has been reloaded. If you want to add your own logic how the grid to execute the CRUD operations, then you need to handle them manually. Note that on RowUpdating server side event your data will be updated and if you want to get still the unchanged cell values, you should do that before firing this event. The following link explains the difference between the auto CRUD and manual CRUD and provide also two videos with demonstrative examples of using them: http://es.infragistics.com/community/blogs/craig_shoemaker/archive/2010/02/01/what-is-the-difference-between-webdatagrid-autocrud-and-manual-crud.aspx
Please let me know if this is helpful to you.
