?Below screen shot will give clear picture of my question.I am unable to add on second row which is shown in screen shot.
Screen shot
Thank you in advance

Adding Dynamic Rows in GridView with TextBoxes
<asp:gridview ID="Gridview1" runat="server" ShowFooter="true"
AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="RowNumber" HeaderText="Row Number" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 1">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 2">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 3">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox3" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" />
<FooterTemplate>
<asp:Button ID="ButtonAdd" runat="server" Text="Add New Row" />
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:gridview>
Your Binding Code
private void SetInitialRow(){
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
DataRow dr = null;
dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("RowNumber", typeof(string)));
dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Column1", typeof(string)));
dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Column2", typeof(string)));
dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Column3", typeof(string)));
dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["RowNumber"] = 1;
dr["Column1"] = string.Empty;
dr["Column2"] = string.Empty;
dr["Column3"] = string.Empty;
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
//Store the DataTable in ViewState
ViewState["CurrentTable"] = dt;
Gridview1.DataSource = dt;
Gridview1.DataBind();
}
Page Load Event Code
if (!Page.IsPostBack){
SetInitialRow();
}
Running the codes above will give us this output below:

As you can see in the 1st column there is a button along with a textbox.
When you click the button, a popup window appears in which there is something like "search-in-the-database" mechanism.
So, when a value is selected in the popup window's gridview, I want to transfer it to the corresponding text box.
How do I transfer the value into the corresponding textbox? As a beginner, I am dealing a great difficulty into that part. Any help will be appreciated

Following tutorial details the exact same scenario. Please refer to it.
Adding Dynamic Rows to Gridview on Button Click
private void AddNewRowToGrid()
{
int rowIndex = 0;
if (ViewState["CurrentTable"] != null)
{
DataTable dtCurrentTable = (DataTable)ViewState["CurrentTable"];
DataRow drCurrentRow = null;
if (dtCurrentTable.Rows.Count > 0)
{
for (int i = 1; i <= dtCurrentTable.Rows.Count; i++)
{
//extract the TextBox values
TextBox box1 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[1].FindControl("TextBox1");
TextBox box2 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[2].FindControl("TextBox2");
TextBox box3 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[3].FindControl("TextBox3");
//Instead of all the textboxes, use the button as you require.
drCurrentRow = dtCurrentTable.NewRow();
drCurrentRow["RowNumber"] = i + 1;
dtCurrentTable.Rows[i - 1]["Column1"] = box1.Text;
dtCurrentTable.Rows[i - 1]["Column2"] = box2.Text;
dtCurrentTable.Rows[i - 1]["Column3"] = box3.Text;
rowIndex++;
}
dtCurrentTable.Rows.Add(drCurrentRow);
ViewState["CurrentTable"] = dtCurrentTable;
Gridview1.DataSource = dtCurrentTable;
Gridview1.DataBind();
}
}
else
{
Response.Write("ViewState is null");
}
//Set Previous Data on Postbacks
SetPreviousData();
}
And then the SetPreviousData() Function:
private void SetPreviousData()
{
int rowIndex = 0;
if (ViewState["CurrentTable"] != null)
{
DataTable dt = (DataTable)ViewState["CurrentTable"];
if (dt.Rows.Count > 0)
{
for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)
{
TextBox box1 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[1].FindControl("TextBox1");
TextBox box2 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[2].FindControl("TextBox2");
TextBox box3 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowIndex].Cells[3].FindControl("TextBox3");
box1.Text = dt.Rows[i]["Column1"].ToString();
box2.Text = dt.Rows[i]["Column2"].ToString();
box3.Text = dt.Rows[i]["Column3"].ToString();
rowIndex++;
}
}
}
}
Then inside your Click Event:
protected void ButtonAdd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
AddNewRowToGrid();
}

From your Load grid method you should retrieve the data as a data table and bind to grid. And save in in session. Like this:
private void Loadgrid()
{
var dt = new DataTable();
using (var conn = new SqlConnection (ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringName"].ToString()))
{
var command = new SqlCommand();
command.Connection = conn;
command.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM [dbo].[T1]";
command.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
using (var adaptor = new SqlDataAdapter(command))
{
if (conn.State == ConnectionState.Closed) conn.Open();
adaptor.Fill(dt);
if (conn.State == ConnectionState.Open) conn.Close();
}
}
Session["ss"] = dt;
grid2.DataSource = dt;
grid2.DataBind();
}
private void AddNewRowToGrid()
{
DataTable dt = (DataTable) Session["ss"];
DataRow dr = null;
DataRow newBlankRow1 = dt.NewRow();
dt.Rows.Add(newBlankRow1);
grid2.DataSource = dt;
grid2.DataBind();
Session["ss"] = dt;
}
After add an empty row also you need to bind data to grid again.

Bind drop down with data in new row of grid

Im trying to add a new row in grid with dropdown as one column in it. Now im trying to bind data to the drop down when the new row is added but the data doesnt show up. Can anyone tell me whats the problem with my code?

Gridview always add new row when click button?

I'm write the code which create new row in gridview when click button. The number of rows are created by value in textbox. Ex: When i enter value 2 in textbox, of course two rows will be added, but when i clicked button again, third rows still added. Please check my code here:
ASPX
<asp:TextBox ID="txtVisitor" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:GridView ID="Gridview1" runat="server" ShowFooter="true" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="RowNumber" HeaderText="Row Number" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 1">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtDate" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 2">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Header 3">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox3" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" />
<FooterTemplate>
<asp:Button ID="ButtonAdd" runat="server" Text="Add New Row" OnClick="ButtonAdd_Click" />
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

{
int visitors = Convert.ToInt32(txtVisitor.Text);
AddNewRowToGrid(visitors);
}

drCurrentRow["Column3"] = box3.Text;
dtCurrentTable.Rows.Add(drCurrentRow);
drCurrentRow = null;
rowindex++;
}
//add new row to DataTable
//Store the current data to ViewState
ViewState["CurrentTable"] = dtCurrentTable;
//Rebind the Grid with the current data
Gridview1.DataSource = dtCurrentTable;
Gridview1.DataBind();
}

Here is problem #1 with your code:
for (int i = dtCurrentTable.Rows.Count; i < visitors; i++)
{
//extract the TextBox values
TextBox box1 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[1].FindControl("txtDate");
TextBox box2 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[2].FindControl("TextBox2");
TextBox box3 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[3].FindControl("TextBox3");
drCurrentRow = dtCurrentTable.NewRow();
drCurrentRow["RowNumber"] = i + 1;
drCurrentRow["Column1"] = box1.Text;
drCurrentRow["Column2"] = box2.Text;
drCurrentRow["Column3"] = box3.Text;
dtCurrentTable.Rows.Add(drCurrentRow);
drCurrentRow = null;
rowindex++;
}
you set i to 1
replace it to row count of gridview
tostart from it

Here is problem #1 with your code:
//extract the TextBox values
TextBox box1 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[1].FindControl("txtDate");
TextBox box2 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[2].FindControl("TextBox2");
TextBox box3 = (TextBox)Gridview1.Rows[rowindex].Cells[3].FindControl("TextBox3");
This logic is flawed and not even necessary, because when you bind the grid it will iterate through the collection you supply as the DataSource and use the TemplateFields you defined in the markup to create each row.
The rows are not actually added to the GridView until is bound to a data source, a DataTable in your case, like this:
Gridview1.DataSource = dt;
Gridview1.DataBind();
Step #1 is to remove the FindControl lines from your AddNewRowToGrid method.
I am not even sure what you are trying to accomplish in your code.
