Hello Carlos,

The following code within the OnItemCommand event handler should retrieve the correct values:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)

{

if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.PerformInsertCommandName && e.Item is GridEditFormInsertItem)

{

GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;

TextBox textBoxAccountCode = (TextBox)item.FindControl("RadtxtAccountCode");

RadTextBox RadtxtAccountDescription = item.FindControl("RadtxtAccountDescription") as RadTextBox;

string accountCode = textBoxAccountCode.Text;

string accountDescription = RadtxtAccountDescription.Text;

}

However, from the provided code snippet it is not clear how you are binding your RadGrid, so can you please ensure that you are using the Advanced Data-Binding or Declarative DataSource as documented in the following help articles:

Hope this helps.
