I have a vb.net application in which a grid view is there with a hidden field. I want to get the value of that hidden cell

Code behind statusGrdvw.Rows(assign).Cells(5).Text

  • Depends on wich framework version you use, but i suggest you to use GridView.DataKey instead of this trick, it will help also to reduce page size and overall complexity. – Giulio Caccin Aug 08 '15 at 11:47

Well you can add this style in the html

<style>
.hidden {display:none;}
        #exportother {
            position: relative;
            top: 13px;
            left: -840px;
        }
    </style>

Then on the field you want to hide

ItemStyle-CssClass="hidden"
HeaderStyle-CssClass="hidden"

The field will be hidden but will be accessible from code behind.

You didn't provide much to go on but what you need to do is get it by its control index. So basically if you have 2 controls in one column you have a control at index 0 and index 1. Something like this (you'll have to look up the exact syntax): 

((HiddenInput)statusGrdvw.Rows(assign).Cells(5).Controls[0]).Value

Try this one to fetch the value in hidden field :

Dim hidden2 As String  = CType(statusGrdvw.SelectedRow.Cells(5).FindControl("HiddenfieldID"), HiddenField).Value;
