Represents the different data-entry modes of a System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control.
Syntax
Remarks
The System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormViewMode enumeration is used to represent the data-entry modes of a System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control. To determine the current mode of the control, use the FormView.CurrentMode property. After an insert or update operation, the System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control returns to the mode specified by the FormView.DefaultMode property. By default, the control returns to read-only mode. You can specify an alternate mode to return to by setting the FormView.DefaultMode property. To change modes programmatically, use the FormView.ChangeMode(FormViewMode) method. When the System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control changes modes, the events in the following table are raised.
| FormView.ModeChanging |
Occurs when a System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control attempts to change between edit, insert, and read-only mode, but before the mode actually changes. This event is often used to cancel a mode change. |
| FormView.ModeChanged |
Occurs after a System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control has changed from edit, insert, or read-only mode to another mode. This event is often used to perform a task when the System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView control changes modes. |
