findcontrol textbox text without declaring variable c#

Question

Is there a way to turn these two lines of code into a single line of

TextBox tempTextBox= grdvwEncroachmentsID.Rows[e.RowIndex].FindControl("txtbxBillTo") as TextBox;
string billToTemp = tempTextBox.Text;

Answer 1

Just delete the Line Break!

Just kidding. I assume you mean single statement.

Here you go:

string billToTemp = (grdvwEncroachmentsID.Rows[e.RowIndex].FindControl("txtbxBillTo") as TextBox).Text;

Not sure why you would do this, though. It's ugly.
