Hello Abhinav,

The following code snippet shows how to access the selected item cell values in SelectedIndexChanged event of RadGrid.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)RadGrid1.SelectedItems[0];
       string id = item["ColumnUniqueName"].Text; // accessing selected cell values
   }

Thanks,
Princy.

Hello Abinav,

For template columns you must find the control in the grid cell and extract its value. You need to access the GridDataItem and get reference to control using the FindControl(controlId) method. More information is available here:
