In the following article, it says to have a button ina  gridview, you need 
to capture the ItemCommand event.  Well, there is no ItemCommand event in 
the gridview.  So I use the RowCommand.  The Article says to use the 
e.item.itemindex to determine the row that was selected, well the RowCommand 
has no e.item.itemindex proeprty.  So how am I supposed to put a button in a 
gridview.

Yes you are correct that in the GridViewCommandEventArgs class there is no 
index of the row. Fo this purpose you can follow the sample of this article 
that describes how you can handle the index of the row:
