Read From Radiobutton Group in a Datagrid

[B827]

Hi,
I have a problem which I am sure will be easy to solve but I just cant see the solution.

I have a small questionnaire in an ASP.NET application which consists of 5 questions with a radio button group of 4 mutually exclusive answers which I want to store in a database. Currently everything works and the radio buttons are in template columns. But I cannot work out how to retrieve the selected values once the form is posted back.

Could some one give me an example of the code used to do this please?

Sandy

Can you provide your code for the radio buttons (the aspx portion not the code behind)?

Thanks for looking Ca8msm, the code for the datagrid is:

<asp:datagrid id=DataGrid1 runat="server" Width="256px" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyField="ID" DataMember="SOURCE_DATA" DataSource="<%# DsRealThing1 %>">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="ID" SortExpression="ID" HeaderText="ID Number"></asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="COUNTRY" SortExpression="COUNTRY" HeaderText="Country"></asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="ORGANISATION" SortExpression="ORGANISATION" HeaderText="Organisation"></asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Option A">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton id="Radio_a" runat="server" GroupName="Optionsel"></asp:RadioButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Option B">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton id="Radio_b" runat="server" GroupName="Optionsel"></asp:RadioButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Option C">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton id="Radio_c" runat="server" GroupName="Optionsel"></asp:RadioButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Option D">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton id="Radio_d" runat="server" GroupName="Optionsel"></asp:RadioButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>

OK, if you need to get a reference to a control within a DataGrid's TemplateColumn, you'll have to use the FindControl method.
