I have a link button in grid view and on click of the link button i have assigned a url and it is redirecting in the same tab, Can we redirect to a different tab or different window ?

What I have tried:

<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server"  OnCommand="LinkButton_Click"  Text="Link" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("T_Link") %>'></asp:LinkButton>

protected void LinkButton_Click(Object sender, CommandEventArgs e)
  {
      strURL = "";
      LinkButton lb = (LinkButton)sender;
      GridViewRow row1 = (GridViewRow)lb.NamingContainer;
      strURL = e.CommandArgument.ToString();
      Response.Redirect(strURL);
  }

LinkButton unfortunately hides the standard 'target'[^] attribute...
You may use simple HTML code or the HyperLink[^] control...

try

protected void LinkButton_Click(Object sender, CommandEventArgs e)
       {
            strURL = "";
           LinkButton lb = (LinkButton)sender;
           GridViewRow row1 = (GridViewRow)lb.NamingContainer;
           strURL = e.CommandArgument.ToString();
           Response.Write("<script>");
           Response.Write("window.open('"+strURL+"','_blank')");
           Response.Write("</script>");
       }

Alternate and effective solution
replace the linkbutton with an anchor tag

<a href='<%# Eval("T_Link") %>' target="_blank">Link</a>
