Thank you for helping... it wasnt viewstat problem .. I have solved... ProfileCommon p; protected void Page_Load( object sender, EventArgs e) { p = this .Profile; if (!IsPostBack) { TextBox1.Text = p.status; } } protected void Button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { if (Button1.Text == "Edit" ) { TextBox1.ReadOnly = false ; Button1.Text = "Update" ; } else if (Button1.Text == "Update" ) { TextBox1.ReadOnly = true ; p.status = TextBox1.Text; Button1.Text = "Edit" ; } }

hi friend, try set the page attribute in PageDirective EnableViewState=true; if its not working in your case then do it for each control. the reason behind this is because the HTTP protocol is stateless protocol as you fire postback or page refresh all states of variables are lost and they set to either null or their default value. so you have to save their state. And EnableViewState provide you this facility. Please Kick it if it helps you.
