Thank you for the explanation. I ended up using pretty much the same approach as you do.

I use this methodology a lot since it is straightforward. I figure there are also other methodologies you can use also, maybe some of them would be more efficient or elegant but I have not checked into it sine this methodology has worked well for me.

>>>>I have ASP.NET Grid View on ASPX page bound to a dataset/table. I need to find a value of one column by the value of another column. For example, say Grid View has columns Order_no and Customer_Name. I have the customer name "ABC" and need to find the Order_no corresponding to this Customer; basically find this row. I found examples online of scanning through the Grid View. Is this the only approach? Or you can actually Search for the desired row?
