I am binding values to GridView from some tables in DB.

The code i used for this is following:

C#

public void gridfill()
{
 try
  {
  reader = obj.SelCommand("Select id as Code,client_name as Client from tbl_client order by cast(id as int)");
  using (reader)
  {
    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    dt.Load(reader);
    grdCompany.DataSource = dt;
    grdCompany.DataBind();
   }
  catch (Exception ex)
  {
   Response.Write("Error in Page:" + ex.Message);
  }
    }

Now am getting correct result like this:

1 GMA
2 TEC
3 ERT
4 LVV

etc....

Now my question is I WANT TO MAKE THE FIRST CELL "Clickable" and i want to do some coding in the click event of that cell value.

How can i do this?please help me

XML

Hi,
to achieve this you have to use the TemplateField type of column for the first column. Please refer below code example.
01.<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
02.
03.<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
04.<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
05.<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
06.<script runat="server">
07.
08.  protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
09.  {
10.    if (!IsPostBack)
11.      gridFill();
12.  }
13.
14.  private void gridFill()
15.  {
16.    try {
17.      reader = obj.SelCommand("Select id as Code,client_name as Client from tbl_Client order by cast(id as int)");
18.      using (reader)
19.      {
20.        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
21.        dt.Load(reader);
22.        grdCompany.DataSource = dt;
23.        grdCompany.DataBind();
24.      }
25.    }
26.    catch { }
27.
28.  }
29.
30.  protected void grdCompany_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
31.  {
32.    if (e.CommandName.Equals("company"))
33.    {
34.      int companyID = int.Parse(e.CommandArgument.ToString());
35.      //perform your operation using e.CommandArgument
36.    }
37.  }
38.</script>
39.<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
40.<head runat="server">
41.  <title></title>
42.</head>
43.<body>
44.  <form id="form1" runat="server">
45.  <div>
46.    <asp:GridView ID="grdCompany" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" OnRowCommand="grdCompany_RowCommand">
47.      <Columns>
48.        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="ID">
49.          <ItemTemplate>
50.            <asp:LinkButton ID="lbCompanyID" runat="server" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("Code") %>'
51.              CommandName="company"></asp:LinkButton>
52.          </ItemTemplate>
53.        </asp:TemplateField>
54.        <asp:BoundField DataField="Client" HeaderText="Client" />
55.      </Columns>
56.    </asp:GridView>
57.  </div>
58.  </form>
59.</body>
