What?
I'm not clear with what you are trying to do, but javascript should be able to take the value from one control(hidden or otherwise) and put it in another control

Then javascript would be the way of it.

Something like:
[code=javascript]
var theval = document.getEle mentById("MyHid denfieldName"). Value;
document.getEle mentById("TheTe xtboxToSet").Va lue = theval;
[/code]

Javascript will do it again. The coding is similar to what Plater gave you above. Try it and post your code if you get problems.

[hsegoy1979]

<script language="javas cript" type="text/javascript" >
function DisplayHiddenVa lue()
{
debugger;
var theval = document.getEle mentById('hdnfl d').value;
alert(document. getElementById( 'hdnfld').value );
document.getEle mentById('txtdi splay').value = theval;
}
</script>

My problem is suppose i enter text intially Hello afterwards the value in hiddenfield is World When i call above javascript function it will display Hello World

Moving to Javascript forum.

[CODE=javascript]var txt = document.getEle mentById('txtdi splay');
txt.value = txt.value + ' ' + theval;[/CODE]

Of course you can. You need to make a general function and pass the required arguments to it.

If you can show me HTML part of the grid, I can surely tell you what arguments you need to give to the function.

It would be better if you post the generated HTML (the one which you see in the view source thingie)
