    Your control ID is defined within a template. See this answer for information regarding accessing your control by ID. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14584175/how-to-find-control-in-edit-item-template – billb Jun 01 '16 at 20:24
  • Thank you for the clarification . If the textbox is existed we can retrieve the value GridViewRow row = uxResultsGrid.Rows[e.NewEditIndex]; TextBox txtvalues = (TextBox)row.FindControl("tcteditor"); like this if i want to retrieve the html editor control value how it is possible, Can you help me with this..@ billb – user3089816 Jun 01 '16 at 20:56
