Hello Karthik,

The following code snippet shows how to access all the TextBoxes in ItemTemplate from an external button click event.

<telerik:RadGrid . . . . . >
         <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="LastName">
             <ItemTemplate>
               <asp:TextBox ID="txt1" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("LastName") %>>
           </asp:TextBox>
             </ItemTemplate>
         </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
             . . . . . .
        </telerik:RadGrid>

<asp:Button ID="saveBtn" Text="save" runat="server" onclick="saveBtn_Click" />

C#:

protected void saveBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
      foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
      {
          TextBox txtBox = (TextBox)item["LastName"].FindControl("txt1");
          string s = txtBox.Text;
      }
  }

In this example, 

foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)

what does  RadGrid1 refer to. Is that the ID of the telerik grid control. If yes, then that is not accessible on
page load. 
 I have a link button inside Gridtemplate column. On page load, i want to add a onclientclick event to that, which will execute some JS. How to achieve this functionality. Please advice.

Hi,

RadGrid1 refers to the ID of the telerik Radgrid control. You can get reference to the controls in ItemDataBound  event and attach the client event as shown below.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            LinkButton link = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("LinkButton1");
            link.OnClientClick = "OnClientClick();return false;";
        }
}

Thanks,
Princy
