The datagrid is getting re-bound on Page Load even when the Page is being posted back due to the button click. You need to include the data-binding code in the Page load event only if the page is not being posted back. This will maintain the state and the OnItemCommand event handler will get triggered as expected .. protected void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!IsPostBack) { OleDbConnection iConnection = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ilearn\database\pManagement.mdb"); OleDbDataAdapter iCommand = new OleDbDataAdapter("select * from project", iConnection); DataSet ids = new DataSet(); iCommand.Fill(ids, "Authors"); iList.DataSource=ids.Tables["Authors"].DefaultView; iList.DataBind(); test.Text = " is it working "; } } ..

Well. It may be working. Check Page.IsPostBack property. Mike
