Re: how to hide some cells of footer row

// Gets the footer row directly
        GridViewRow row = gvRequestDetail.FooterRow;

//you can find any control in footer like this
        var listName = ((TextBox)row.FindControl("txtlistname")).Text;

Hope this helps

Re: how to hide some cells of footer row

make false here in the higlighted line

1) gvRequestDetail.ShowFooter= false;

gvRequestDetail.FooterRow.Cells[0].Style.Add("display","none");

gvRequestDetail.FooterRow.Cells[1].Style.Add("display","none");

gvRequestDetail.FooterRow.Cells[2].Style.Add("display","none");

2) also remove showfooter = true in the design

Re: how to hide some cells of footer row

I have worked with your code. Please try with the following code snippet. Hopefully, it will work as desired.

this.gvRequestDetail.FooterRow.Cells[0].Style.Add("visibility", "hidden"); //For invisible
this.gvRequestDetail.FooterRow.Cells[0].Style.Add("visibility", "visible"); //For visible

Re: how to hide some cells of footer row

ENOUGH :-( every solution works once...i have saved every thing but when i compile and execute code again it stop working

what to do...

Re: how to hide some cells of footer row

Do you DataBind only when !IsPostBack?

And what about adding the style?

GridView Cells may not remember the style you set like this on PostBack.

ShowFooter will only affect what DataBind does. So it must be set before the call to DataBind.
