Accessing a Footer

[Jim Heavey]

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to access the controls of the footer
when the "ItemEdit" event from the <asp:EditCommandColumn is triggered. I
want to cancel the even if I find data in the controls of the footer. Is
there any way for me to access the footer information? I have create
<FooterTemplate for each of the footer columns.

I have tried the Datagrid.FindControl, but it does not find anything.

Any Suggestions?

To access the footer control, you need to access it through
datagrid.controls(0).controls and then look for datagrid footer item.
