ASP.NET GridView unbound checkbox issue
I am populating a gridview with data from a stored procedure. I also have a checkbox template column that is not bound. I populate the grid just fine and then I check a checkbox and click a button to read the checkbox, but it always returns Checked = false.
I have set breakpoints so I know that the code is being executed.
Here is the code behind the button -
protected void btnUpdatePreferences_Click
{
if (gvwPreferences.Rows.Count
{
foreach (GridViewRow row in gvwPreferences.Rows)
{
if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow
{
CheckBox subscribe = (CheckBox)row.FindControl(
}
}
}
}
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Kevin.

thanks for the info.
at the moment, the check box is not bound at all and I don't have AutoPostBack set.
Here is the definition of the checkbox template -
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Subscribe">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" />
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

hi..
although checkbox is not bound, if binds automatically if GridView is binding again in PostBack...
As per me the problem may be due to GridView is binding again so although you checked the checkbox, you get checkbox.checked = false.
so tell us where you bind GridView and if your GridView is not bind again on PostBack then check whether your ViewState is enabled or not.

Thanks for the help. I was getting confused about the AutoPostBack property versus actually checking for post back when binding. That was my problem.
I added the check - if (!IsPostBack)
and all is well now.
Thanks,
Kevin.

.aspx file
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="IsRejected">
<EditItemTemplate>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" OnCheckedChanged="chkIsRej
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
.cs file
protected void chkIsRejected_CheckedChang
{
CheckBox chkReject = (CheckBox)sender;
//to get the grid view row where this checkbox is present
GridViewRow gvr = (GridViewRow)chkReject.Nam
if (chkReject.Checked)
{
//do any operations
}
}
if you follow this then you wnt need a button to check the checked property
