hi

i have a gridview with some hidden fields wih this code

     GridView2.HeaderRow.Cells[3].Visible = false;

        GridView2.HeaderRow.Cells[4].Visible = false;

        foreach (GridViewRow gvr in GridView2.Rows)

        {

            gvr.Cells[3].Visible = false;

            gvr.Cells[4].Visible = false;

        }

i use this code to get the hiddens fields data for processing 

(the user don't need to view thses fields)

it works but if i click on another page in the pager the hidden fields become visible

thanks for any assistance

 why don't you do this declaratively on the boundfield itself. Then it should just work without you having to maintain the code to ensure that it runs on postback.

You are aware that when you page, you are posting back to the server and your page goes through it's normal life cycle, init, page_load,postbacks, prerender etc

so ensure that when you are clicking the pager buttons and posting back, the lines you pasted are re-executed. During a paging operation, the data control is rebound and it loses state (unfortunately for you).
