Solution 2

In C#, "()" means calling a function, "[]" means "get by index". Your Rows is the property to provide access to each raw by index, so use "[]".

C#

protected void GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
   {

       Int32 index = GridView1.SelectedIndex;
       lblrep.Text = GridView1.Rows[index].Cells[2].Text;
       btndownload.Enabled = true;


   }

You are using an array with these ( ) instead of these [ ].

() for VB
[] for C#
