1. How am I supposed to have a RowIndex column *without* modifying the
Entity class?

Firstly, you're not "supposed to" have a RowIndex column - there's no law
that says you have to have one...

However, it's easy enough:

1) Add a template field to your existing GridView:

<asp:TemplateFi eld HeaderText="Row Index">
<ItemTemplate >
<asp:Label ID="lblRowIndws " runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateFie ld>

2) Wire up a RowDataBound event to your GridView if it doesn't already have
one:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...ebcontrols.gri...

3) Add the following code to the RowDataBound event:
>
protected void gvResults_RowDa taBound(object sender, GridViewRowEven tArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowT ype.DataRow)
{
e.Row.Cells[0].Text = e.Row.RowIndex. ToString();
//e.Row.Cells[6].Text = (Convert.ToInt3 2(e.Row.RowInde x) +
1).ToString();
}
>
}
>
Remember to modify the cell indexer accordingly...

2. How am I supposed to assign a given TAG object to each row?

Can you please explain what you mean by "given TAG object"...?

Back to the original question and the solution you've just provided.
I've noticed that when I press the save button, that's being placed
somewhere
outside the gridview control (which causes the postback and hence the
submit behavior),
the row# column doesn't get updated. I've traced the code and I
noticed that the
gridView_RowDat aBound function doesn't get called for DataRow row
types!!!

Would you please let me know what's going on wrong and how am I
supposed to fix this?

Thanks

The problem I'm referring to is actually posted here.

Hmm - looks like that's a bug in VS.NET 2005. It *appears* to have been
fixed in 2008...

I'm unable to reproduce this behaviour - can you please show your code...
