Question : Can't obtain cell values from Selected Row of GridView programmatically

Although I am using standard methods to try to obtain cell values from the Selected Row within a GridView, the Cells appear empty. From Debug mode, all other attributes of the GridView and SelectedRow are fine (and there are values in all cells displayed in the Browser).

I've included the GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged method and the first part of the Templated GridView1. The other 10 fields are similar to the JESMAS field content.

Why can't I get the actual values of the cells for the selected row? Better yet, how can I make the code work so that I can get the actual values of the cells?
