How to call UpdateCommand from external button click?

[Jason]

 

I have an external button that needs to call my UpdateCommand event, but I am not sure how to do it.  Here is what I have so far:

protected void RadGrid2_UpdateCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
     String connectionString = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["KBConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
     try
     {
          string answerid = e.Item.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues[e.Item.ItemIndex]["AnswerID"].ToString();

          using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
          {
               conn.Open();
               SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("UPDATE Answers SET Answer_Name = @prmAnswer_Name, Answer = @prmAnswer, TimeAdded = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP WHERE AnswerID = " + answerid, conn);
               cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@prmAnswer_Name", RadTextBox1.Text));
               cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@prmAnswer", RadEditor.Text));
               cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
               conn.Close();
          }
     }
     catch (Exception)
     {
          RadScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "alertMessage", "alert('There was a problem finding the ID, please contact support.')", true);
     }
}

Button click:

protected void RadButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     //CommandEventArgs cea = new CommandEventArgs(RadTextBox1.Text, RadEditor.Text);
     //GridCommandEventArgs args = new GridCommandEventArgs(null, "Edit", cea);
     //RadGrid2_UpdateCommand(sender, args);
}

 How do I call the UpdateCommand event from the external button click?
