How to Update Gridview Row without saving data to database

Hi I have a GridView I am using built in Edit method that comes along with GridView in ASP.NET Web Forms. I want to Edit/Update the row in such way that it should only be updated
dynamically in row and should not update records in database. The updated content should be hard coded to row temporarily. Can Any one help me do this task.
Thanks in advance.
You can use a DataTable. Populate your DataTable with any data you want and bind it to your GridView.
Sorry I only can give an answer no comment but my suggestion would be: Keep your data (GridView/Table) in a Session Variable and display this data until you wanna update.

Why does my GridView control in c# aspnet display an old table below the new table?

The objective i'm trying to achieve is to display filtered data in the same gridcontrol.
So what I do is e.g A-DROPDOWN clicked, display XDATA in GRIDVIEW1. Then FilterA selected, this filter calls the "ADROPDOWN" clicked event again and then checks the appropriate filter then passes the appropriate sql query, then displays "YDATA" in GRIDVIEW1.
Now when I select B-DROPDOWN, ZDATA is displayed however below it is the YDATA. If I select C-DROPDOWN, VDATA is displayed howver below it is still the YDATA.
If I selected A-DROPDOWN then XDATA would be displayed then if I would selected B-DROPDOWN without selecting any of the filters, WDATA would be displayed cleanly in GRIDVIEW1 without any data below or above it. Would appreciate if anyone has any suggestions. Cannot show my code because its 20000 lines.
Would like to add. The alphabets assigned to the dropdowns and data represents the different datasets.
SOLVED !!!
Incase it is of help to someone. my update panel in my front end was only updating the gridview, not the table where the grid view was located . I simple made it so that my entire table where the gridview was located was updating. Many thanks.

Show a particular column data in form of buttons or links

I have a query. I want to show a particular column data from a table in form of links. Suppose 5 rows and there in that column, I want to show 5 buttons or links.
Now I know how to bind in gridview or dropdown. But I'm totally unsure about this.
Any ideas will greatly help me.
Hi basically you have two options that you can implement in many ways.
Set the data in the view model in your case create a property that display a collection of items based on the right column
In the view (ex: wpf) create a data template that display the row according the column
