Hi
You can use following steps to do your work.
1) Get all data, including data to be shown in datagrid
(e.g. recordID, description, and others) and detailed data
(e.g. Course Name, Course Date, Trainer, and Location) to
fill into a datatable.
2) Build a datagrid with DataKeyField = "recordID" and few
BoundColumns (for recorded, description, and so on) and a
ButtonColumn.
3) Bind the datagrid with the datatable, and in the mean
time save the datatable in Session.
4) Build ItemCommand event. In the event retrieve clicked
recordID and then pull detailed data from datatable in
Session by following code:
string recordID = datagrid.DataKeys
[e.Item.ItemIndex].ToString();
DataTable data = (DataTable)Session["source"];
DataView dv = data.DefaultView;
dv.RowFilter = "recordID='" + recordID + "'";
DataRowView drv = dv[0];
string CourseName = drv["CourseName"];
string CourseDate = drv["CourseDate"];
string Trainer = drv["Trainer"];
string Location = drv["Location"];
