    DataColumn dc3 = new DataColumn("LastName");
    DataColumn dc4 = new DataColumn("Gender");
    dt.Columns.Add(dc1);
    dt.Columns.Add(dc2);
    dt.Columns.Add(dc3);
    dt.Columns.Add(dc4);
    DataRow dr1 = dt.NewRow();
    GridView1.DataSource = dt;
    GridView1.DataBind();
    }
    DataTable dt;

    protected void Button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

    Use static datatable or session for the datatable your problem will solved

    if(session["datatable"] !=null)
    {
    dt= (Datatable )session["datatable"];
    DataRow dr1 = dt.NewRow();
    dr1[0] = TextBox1.Text;
    dr1[1] = TextBox2.Text;
    dr1[2] = TextBox3.Text;
    dr1[3] = TextBox4.Text;
    dt.Rows.Add(dr1);
    session["datatable"]= dt;
    }
    else
    {
    DataRow dr1 = dt.NewRow();
    dr1[0] = TextBox1.Text;
    dr1[1] = TextBox2.Text;
    dr1[2] = TextBox3.Text;
    dr1[3] = TextBox4.Text;
    dt.Rows.Add(dr1);
    session["datatable"]= dt;
    }

    Hi,

    The reason behind is Controls won't maintain state over postback, so that the reason Microsoft introduce the concept called as StateManagement, As per Microsoft we have different types of StateManagement techniques available in .net those are

    1) ViewState
    2)Session State
    3) Cache
    4)Cookies
    etc...

    You can go through all the concepts later if you are really interested, for now as per my understanding you want to maintain state with in page so you can use ViewState to maintain the previous entered records.

    Ex:

    DataTable dt=new DataTable();
    if(ViewState["Data"]!=null)
    {
    dt= ViewState["Data"] as DataTable;
    DataRow dr=dt.NewRow();
    dr["Col1"]=lbl1.Text;
    dr["Col2"]=lbl2.Text;
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);
    dt.AcceptChanges();
    ViewState["Data"]=dt;
    }
    else
    {
    dt.Columns.Add("Col1");
    dt.Columns.Add("col2");
    dr["Col1"]=lbl1.Text;
    dr["Col2"]=lbl2.Text;
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);
    dt.AcceptChanges();
    ViewState["Data"]=dt;

    }


    Hope this will helpful to you, if you still have any doubts first go through all StateManagement concepts then try to implement your task.
