check box in datagrid

[suzzain]

Hi all, I have checkboxes in datagrid to select and a delete button outside the datagrid to delete the checked row in datagrid. After checking the check box and clicking the delete button, in the btndelete_Click im finding the check box in the datagrid and deleting the particular record, but im getting the checked false in the btndelete_Click of the datagrid checkbox which is checked. Please tell me why it is so and how can i find the checkbox of datagrid is checked or not in button click. The code is below:

protected void btnDelete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (DataGridItem DemoGridItem in grid.Items)
{
CheckBox oCheckbox = (CheckBox)DemoGridItem.Cells[1].FindControl("chkDelete");
HiddenField hidImageName = (HiddenField)DemoGridItem.Cells[1].FindControl("hdnItem");
if (oCheckbox.Checked == true)
{

            try
            {
                Delete code;
            }
            catch( Exception e)
            {

            }
        }
    }

}

Thanks in advance for ur help.

The real question is, where do the checkboxes come from ? Best guess, your page load is binding to the datasource and erasing any selected items.
