Hi,

Please try the following code to access the Filter TextBox in ItemCommand event.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.FilterCommandName)
        {
            GridFilteringItem fitem = (GridFilteringItem)e.Item;
            TextBox filterBox = (TextBox)fitem["ColumnUniqueName"].Controls[0];
            string strTxt = filterBox.Text;
        }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.
