All you would need is an event handler for the image button click. To retrieve a value from a specific datagrid cell: 
 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;MessageBox.Show(this.dgMyDatagrid[this.dgMyDatagrid.CurrentRowIndex,1].ToString()); 
 
Or more generically: 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;DATAGRIDNAME[ROWINDEX,COLUMNNUMBER].ToString()

Hi guys, I have a datagrid that comprises of information taken from a db. 
 
The first col is hidden and retrieves the items id, the second col is a ImageButton. I do I click on the image button and retrieve its key in a code behind page? 
 
Cheers
