Well, bear in mind that once the page is rendered you no longer have a grid
or a dataset, but rather static html in a browser. If you can be more
specific about what you want to do when you find a particular row in the
grid, I can be more specific with recommendations. However, at a high
level, you'll most likely have to take one of the following two approaches:
1. Use DHTML on the client-side to modify the page after finding a
particular string in the table tags generated by the server-side datagrid
control; or
2. Write server-side code to reopen a dataset, find the row based on user
input, and then set the grid's SelectedItem or SelectedIndex property
accordingly. In this scenario, the database is requeried and the page
regenerated.
Hope this helps!
