None of the textboxes have TextMode set to Multiline.
Set the TextMode property to Multiline on the textbox that you want to be displayed as textarea.
e.g:
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtCategoryName" Columns="50" Rows="5" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Text='<%# Bind("CategoryName") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
EDIT
And to make the label wrap, try adding an ItemStyle to it, like this:
<ItemStyle Wrap="true" Width="200" />

My code behind look like this. not sure what I am missing. I can't seem to get the values from the row. I have tried everything, DirectCast, FindControl.
Protected Sub OnRowUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewUpdateEventArgs)
Dim updVid As New VidInformation
Dim updVidRecord As New vidController
Dim row = gvVideos.Rows(e.RowIndex)
updVid.customerId = row.Cells(1).Text.ToString
gvVideos.EditIndex = -1
gvVideos.DataSource = updVidRecord.UpdateVidRecord(updVid)
bindGridview()
End Sub
Converting series of helpful comments to an answer
The correct way to get new values posted to edited GridView row is to use NewValues property of the even args object:
Protected Sub OnRowUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewUpdateEventArgs)
...
Dim updVid As New VidInformation
updVid.customerId = e.NewValues("customerId")
...
End Sub
As to why initial approach did not work. Important thing to realize is that GridView row in question was in edit mode during the previous load of the page. During the post back which edit button triggered new values are posted to the server, but the row is no longer in edit mode, so there are no more edit controls to be found in this row. Thus the method described above is the only by-design way to obtain new values for the row.
I have a GridView that is editable with an entitydatasource, if my users want to delete the text in one of the fields they cannot. They can replace the text with a space which then saves, but if the textbox is completely empty the save operation doesn't do anything.
How do I combat this?
Thanks

There is one codebehind method, but that doesn't touch the data:
protected void ActionPlanGV_OnRowDataBound(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
{
foreach (GridViewRow row in ActionPlanGV.Rows)
{
var alertTypeColtxt = (Label)row.FindControl("AlertTypeColtxt");
if (alertTypeColtxt != null)
{
if (alertTypeColtxt.Text == "Red")
alertTypeColtxt.Text = "<svg width='18' height='18'><circle cx='9' cy='9' r='8' fill='red' /></svg>";
if (alertTypeColtxt.Text == "Amber")
alertTypeColtxt.Text =
"<svg width='15' height='15'><rect x='0' y='0' height='15' width='15' fill='orange' /></svg>";
if (alertTypeColtxt.Text == "Green")
alertTypeColtxt.Text = "<svg width='18' height='18'><circle cx='9' cy='9' r='8' fill='green' /></svg>";
}

try this... working properly...for wrapping text in Gridview
protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
e.Row.Cells[1].Attributes.Add("style", "word-break:break-all;word-wrap:break-word;width:100px");
}
}
}
Sometimes ItemStyle Wrap="true" doesn't work. To be certain your text wraps, surround the Label in a and set a width on the surrounding div.
EDIT

You can set the ItemStyle of the TemplateField to true like this:

I want my .ascx file use on gridview Category cell
Use a placeholder and on rowdatabound use findcontrol to find the placeholder and use loadcontrol to add your usercontrol to the controls collection of the placeholder. Does that help?
