Can you run SQL Profiler (or similar tool) to see if there are errors on the SQL server or if your statements are even running?

I am using mysql

Please help me solve my problem. It's really important.

Dear my experience in asp.net and Microsoft Sql Server , in the asp.net application say you are using ADO.net you need to call sqlDataAdapter.Update(param) , say you are using LINQ technology you to retrieve the row and update it then call the submitChanges method , simply to submit the changes back to the data base , may be and may be not this is the missing part of your code
best regards

Could you please elaborate more on what you've said?

i thing when you binding Grdiview then you didn't use IsPostback propery in page load.

try ...
If(!Page.IsPostback)
{
BindGridView();
}
it will solve your problem

xaveri,

It's been a little while since I have used GridViews, so you'll have to bear with me. You may try adding the "OnEvent" values to the GridView tag. Such as "OnRowDeleting" or "OnRowDeleted" you can either add code behind or add script to your page to alert the page as to how to react to an event. I have not often used the SQL Data Source object, as I normally use LINQ, but hopefully this article may be of some use.

Hope that helps.

Thanks.. finally somebody replied on this post.. I haven't checked the code properly but i think this might be useful :)
