Hello!

I'm a new developer here, working in VB. Have a question that is stumping me as well as some others.

I have a gridview control built. I am not using an <sqldatasource> tag, so I can't use it's autoGenerateSelect/Update/Delete functionality. I have built a template field that has an "edit" link button in it, and by clicking it will fire the grdName_SelectedIndexChanged event of the gridview.

Now, it's in this event where I'm having trouble. I have it coded so that when this event fires, it will build a textbox and button control. Code:

Protected Sub grdResults2_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles grdResults2.SelectedIndexChanged

Dim row As GridViewRow = grdResults2.SelectedRow
Dim cell As TableCell = row.Cells(6)
Dim txtSeq As New TextBox
Dim btnUpdate As New Button

'build the textbox in the Search_Seq cell
txtSeq.ID = "txtSeq"
txtSeq.Width = Unit.Pixel(20)
txtSeq.Text = row.Cells(6).Text
cell.Controls.Add(txtSeq)

'build the "update" button in the Search_Seq cell
btnUpdate.ID = "btnUpdate"
btnUpdate.Text = "Update"
cell.Controls.Add(btnUpdate)




End Sub


So the textbox and button populate perfectly. I can run it in the browser and it works fine.

How do I go about setting up the event for this button now? Because it's being manually built here in the gridview event, there is no button for me to "double_click" on in the design view to auto-build this event. There are some properties that need to be set on this button to link it up to a new event....and that's where I'm lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hopefully I don't leave any additional information out. If I did, please let me know! I've attached a word document that shows a couple pictures of what it is I'm doing and need.
