ASP.net Gridview.. something weird

I have a gridview and use a session to pass the variables from the page to an edit page. This works perfectly, until you search for a number. When you search the correct record displays in gridview, but when you click edit, it passes the wrong record.

Private Sub gridview1_RowEditing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewEditEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowEditing
    Session("wr_id") = GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(2).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(3).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(4).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(5).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.N开发者_开发问答ewEditIndex).Cells(6).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(7).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(8).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(9).Text & "~\/~" & _
                GridView1.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(10).Text & "~\/~" 
                Response.Redirect("WorkEdit.aspx")
End Sub

GRIDVIEW Page

    Dim strPost As Boolean = HiddenSearch.Value
    If strPost = True Then
        Dim strNumber As String
        Dim Dropdown As String
        strNumber = Search_text.Text
        Dropdown = Search_Field.SelectedValue
        If Dropdown = "WO#" Then
            Convert.ToInt32(strNumber)
        End If
        Try
            SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = "SELECT * FROM [WorkOrderLog] WHERE " + Dropdown + " = '" + strNumber + "' ORDER BY [WO#] DESC"
            SqlDataSource1.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty)
            SqlDataSource1.DataBind()
            GridView1.DataBind()
        Catch
            'output messagebox for debug
            Dim strPrompt As String
            strPrompt = "Something bad happened, check search text and try again."
            Dim strScript As String = "<script language=JavaScript>"
            strScript += "alert(' " & strPrompt & "');"
            strScript += "</script>"
            Search_text.Focus()
        End Try
    Else
        Search_text.Focus()
    End If

I realize not all of the code is pasted in here, because it would take too much space. Any Ideas? I'm guessing it has something to do with e.NewEditIndex

Your code looks fine. Is Session("wr_id") the actual code, or is "wr_id" mock-up code?

The reason I ask is because session values can either be accessed by a string or an index.

• Session("id") will access the session variable with the "id" key
• Session(8) will access the 9th element in the session

If you have code using Session(selectedID) and selectedID is a populated object variable, you will change the way you are accessing the session variables depending on whether selectedID is a number or a string

Update:

Look to see if you are binding anywhere else in your code (e.g. your Page_Load event). There is a good chance that you are re-binding the grid with new data before the control's edit event can fire

The solution to the problem was wrapping the pageload in a if, ispostback statement. Thank you for your help rkw.
