hi aspamit,
when you are defining the datagrid, set its itemcommand property also. for eg.
<asp:DataGrid id = ..... OnItemCommand = "grid_selectcom mand"/>
while defining its columns,
<columns>
<asp:BoundColum n HeaderText = "Select" Buttontype= "Pushbutton " text = "select" commandname = "Select"/>
i hope till here you would have followed.
now in your code,
void grid_selectcomm and(object sender,DataGrid CommandEventArg s e)
{
Tablecell itemcell1 = e.item.cells[1]
Tablecell itemcell2 = e.item.cells[2]
and so on
here e.item is the row of the table where the command is raised.
for bound columns the value is stored in the text property of the tablecell.
so to retrieve the values in the textboxes outside the data grid, you can give text1.text = itemcell1.text
text2.text = itemcell2.text and so on (assuming you have declared textboxes in your web page.
hope this helps. any doubts or error pls feel free to post it again.

Thanks for ur help Aaryan.
I don't want any button on my data-grid to display.
What u told is there is a button for each row in data-grid and the user should click that button to select that row.
Instead I want to raise onclick event in any part of the row.

Pls help.

ok do you mean that if you click any part of the row say a particular column, only that column's value shd appear in the text box or the entire row. pls verify this for me and we shall proceed.

Thanks for ur reply.But I am already through it.I used a button column instead.But I don't want to restrict user to click on that button for selecting row instead he should be to click on any part of the row on datagrid and accordingly select those values.
