I have a grid control on a page that I copied from another page and
modified.
For some reason it seem my ItemData event never fires.

I even put a break point in it and it doesn't get there.
I tried response.write and response.end in that event and it doesn't output
anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Could you post the code that isn't working? The event handler should look
like this:

Private Sub DataGrid1_ItemDataBound _
(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs) _
Handles DataGrid1.ItemDataBound
' Your code goes here
End Sub

VS.NET used to play tricks by removing the Handles clause.

Well, I checked for that and it seemed to be right.
I am not at the computer that has the code on it at present. I will respond
as soon as I back at that location with the code.

It did have a handles event that appeared right at first glance.

Will get back to you.

Thanks

Hi Ken,

I wrote you before from a different machine, thus the HandA

Anyhow,

Here is the code..

'at the top
Protected WithEvents grdRepInvoices As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGrid

'then the event code
Private Sub grdRepInvoices_ItemCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As
system.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridCommandEventArgs ) Handles
grdRepInvoices.ItemCommand
Response.Write("got here")
Response.End()
end sub

Like I said, I use the same code in several pages but for some reason this
appears to never fire.
I am dumbfounded and looking for some obvious dumb mistake but can't see it
yet.

Thanks,

Shane

Ken, the issue was on binding
I was binding if not ispostback but not if it is postback
since grid uses paging and doesn't enable viewstate this was the problem it
seems.

Thanks,
Shane
