I have a gridview that has a button in the last cell of each row. I want to get the text from cell 1 for that row the button was clicked on.

So if my gridview looks like this:

N-12 BMW [select]
N-35 Mercedes [select]

if my user clicks row 2, I want to see Mercedes, How can I do that?

I have a buttonClick event for my select button, I'm trying to pull the values using the DataKeyName, but I keep getting 'object reference not set to an instance of an object.

here is what i'm trying

select_Click()
{
string make = grid1.SelectedDataKey.Values["CarMake"].toString();

}

any suggestions on how I can get the cell 1 text for the selected row within my Select_Click()?

Try using the GridView.SelectedIndex value to point to the selected
row.
Then use the GridView1.Rows[SelectedIndex].Cells[1].Text to get the
value inside the cell.

I hope that helps!
