Thanks mm10,

It appears that the values are empty, but I acnnot figure out why. Thanks for replying.

Get the values from the controls in the GridView then:

protected void GridView1_RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
 {

GridViewRow row = GridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex];
int id = Convert.ToInt32(row.Cells[0].Text); // if id is a readonly field in your GridView
string name = ((TextBox)(row.Cells[1].Controls[0])).Text;
string desc = ((TextBox)(row.Cells[2].Controls[0])).Text;

productTableAdapter pAdapter = new productTableAdapter();
pAdapter.Update(id, name, description);
 
GridView1.EditIndex = -1;
 
GridView1.DataBind();
    }
