Hello,

 Since you are using GridButton column, you need to access the control first and then get the Text like below. 

CodeBehind:

If e.CommandName = "Select" Then

    Dim item As GridDataItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridDataItem)
    Dim btn As LinkButton = TryCast(item("ColumnUniqueName").Controls(0), LinkButton)
    TextBox1.Text = btn.Text
End If

Thanks,
Shinu.
