And a sqldatasource:

ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DBUserInterfaceConnectionString %>"
DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [TABLE] WHERE ...;"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [TABLE]"
UpdateCommand="UPDATE TABLE SET ...;">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
If I link them using DatasourceID(gridview property DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1") both buttons work, but I try to do it using vb code behind they DON'T(when I press buttons nothing happens):
Protected Sub Page_Load(...
GridView1.DataSource = SqlDataSource1
GridView1.DataBind()
I need to make it using code behind. How to make them work?
Try using the DataSourceID property and point it to the ID of the data source, like this:
GridView1.DataSourceID = SqlDataSource1.ID
GridView1.DataBind()
You need to wrap them in If Not IsPostBack:
Protected Sub Page_Load(...
If Not IsPostBack Then
GridView1.DataSource = SqlDataSource1
GridView1.DataBind()
EndIf

I have a gridview where the first column are check boxes, the next column is ID's. I have hidden labels on the page that need to get the current ID for any check boxes checked. The labels are specific, hlbl_pain1, hlbl_pain2, hlbl_pain3. It doenst matter which label gets which ID I just need each of the 3 hidden labels to be populated with ID's. Right now on CheckedChanged the 3 labels all update with the same value. I'm having issues looping. This is in VB.
Here's my grid:

My Question :How to Show Buttons (which is outside of grid view) after Link Button Clicked
(which is inside of gridview)
Put your buttons inside the UpdatePanel
I have a search page. In list the search results are displayed.
When I select another page from page numbers, the search result is disappeared and show the list like the page is refreshed. What should I do? I tried OnSelectedIndexChanged and OnSelectedIndexChanging. And didn't work. Thank you.

For pagination You need to work on PageIndexChanging.Nothing to do with OnSelectedIndexChanged.
For Example:
Method
protected void BindData()
{
string strConnection = "Data Source=.; uid=sa; pwd=wintellect;database=Rohatash;";
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(strConnection);
con.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select * from Userinfo", con);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
da.Fill(ds);
GridView1.DataSource = ds;
GridView1.DataBind();
con.Close();
}
PageIndexChanging
protected void GridView1_PageIndexChanging(object sender, GridViewPageEventArgs e)
{
GridView1.PageIndex = e.NewPageIndex;
BindData();
}
Try enabling ViewState on the datasource in your aspx page by adding EnableViewState="true" and ViewStateMode="Enabled"

where is the mistake, I couldn't figure it out, thanks..
The DropDownList only exists within the GridView and you cannot access controls within a GridView directly.
You would need to dynamically add the trigger to the UpdatePanel after you have bound the GridView.
To dynamically add it you would need to first Bind your gridview, then register the trigger
AsyncPostBackTrigger apt = new AsyncPostBackTrigger();
apt.ControlID = ((Button)this.GridView1.FooterRow.FindControl("btnTrigger")).UniqueID;
apt.EventName = "Click";
this.UpdatePanel1.Triggers.Add(apt);
In this example I am using a button's click event to trigger the UpdatePanel. You can adapt this to the DropDownList
Generally the mistake is that you don't need to specify triggers for controls inside an UpdatePanel till you don's set ChildrenAsTriggers="false" on that UpdatePanel

Do not specify profileGridView.Datasource = datatable; profileGridView.DataBind(); when you have already specified datasourceid for the gridview. As the error clearly says, either remove datasourceid for the gridview or the lines profileGridView.Datasource = datatable; profileGridView.DataBind(); from your code!
