Hi,
I have GridView control in my asp.net page with auto generated fields
there is only footer template is present under asp:TemplateField.

I can bind this gridview with any of databae table as depend on user
selection. Now want to add new record in database so I have added text
boxes on footer template cells at runtime depend on number of columns
on table. But when I accessing these text boxes from footer template
on gridview_RowCommand event its not retriving textbox control.

Plese suggest me how can I get footer control textboxes. So that I can
save data in database.

this is the code
