There are situations where you want to gain access to the GridView’s DataSet to display extra information outside of the GridView. I found the following code to work the best for me. You can get the information from the DataSource of a GridView by doing the following:
DataView dv = (DataView)sdsDataSource.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty);
if (dv != null)
{
try
{
strName = (String)dv.Table.Rows[0]["Name"];
}
catch { strName = “N/A”; }
}
You should be able to access whatever information you need from the DataView.
