Solution 1:[1]

You can use a HyperLinkField for this:

<asp:HyperLinkField DataNavigateUrlFormatString="/somepage.aspx?a={0}&b={1}" DataNavigateUrlFields="Column1, Column2" />

Solution 2:[2]

Try something like this

Eval("id") should be the question id and Eval("Question") should be the question field in your database


 <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Question" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"  ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center">
        <ItemTemplate>
            <a href="Answers.aspx?ID=<%#Eval("id")%>"> <%#Eval("Question")%></a>
        </ItemTemplate>
    </asp:TemplateField>
