I am designing a page containing a gridview that takes the data from a dataSource
the data are evaluation questions (20 questions) and the answers are degree of five represented by radiobuttons

I added the radio buttons to the gridview as template item

Like this :

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
CellPadding="4" DataKeyNames="question#" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource" ForeColor="#333333"
GridLines="None" Style="z-index: 102; right: 2px; position: relative; top: -41px" Width="649px" Height="199px">
<FooterStyle BackColor="#5D7B9D" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="question#" HeaderText="no " InsertVisible="False" ReadOnly="True"
SortExpression="question#" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="question" HeaderText="Question" SortExpression="question">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" />
</asp:BoundField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="answers">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton ID="btn5" Text="excellent" runat="server" Font-Size="X-Small" GroupName="answer"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="btn4" Text="v good" runat="server" Font-Size="X-Small" GroupName="answer"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="btn3" Text="good" runat="server" Font-Size="X-Small" GroupName="answer"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="btn2" Text="weekly good" runat="server" Font-Size="X-Small" GroupName="answer" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="btn1" Text="bad" runat="server" Font-Size="X-Small" GroupName="answer" />
</ItemTemplate>
<ItemStyle Width="230px" />
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
<RowStyle BackColor="#F7F6F3" ForeColor="#333333" />
<EditRowStyle BackColor="#999999" />
<SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#E2DED6" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#333333" />
<PagerStyle BackColor="#284775" ForeColor="White" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<HeaderStyle BackColor="#5D7B9D" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="White" ForeColor="#284775" />

</asp:GridView>



but now I want to get the answer of each question but I have no idea how that could be accomplished

if some one has any idea please help me

Here is two websites for you that will answer your questions (I hope).

This will get you familiar with using SQL DataSource. Which I think you already know.
http://www.codersource.net/asp_net_gridviewcontrol.aspx

This website is going to show you how to use controls inside a GridView. The tutorial is specific on checkboxes. http://www.asp.net/learn/data-access...ial-52-vb.aspx

I can post some more code in detail but right now in a hurry.
