vb.net controls: Building a custom datagrid containing a button column. My event handler for
the button column doesn't trigger. I can't get it to break in the event
handler. Don't know of the event isn't firing at all or the handler isn't
triggering.
See the code snippets below.

Thanks

Protected WithEvents RequestsGrid As DataGrid

RequestsGrid = New DataGrid
colEdit = New ButtonColumn
colEdit.Text = "Edit"
colEdit.CommandName = "Select"
colEdit.ButtonType = ButtonColumnType.LinkButton
RequestsGrid.Columns.Add(colEdit)

Private Sub RequestsGrid_ItemCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As
DataGridCommandEventArgs) Handles RequestsGrid.ItemCommand
Dim SelectedRequestID As Integer
' I set my breakpoint here
SelectedRequestID = CInt(e.Item.Cells("RequestID").Text)
End Sub
