Remarks

The DetailsView.CreateFieldSet(object, bool) method is a helper method called by the System.Web.UI.WebControls.DetailsView control to create the complete set of row fields for the control. If the DetailsView.AutoGenerateRows property is set to true, automatically generated row fields are appended to the user-defined row fields contained in the DetailsView.Fields collection. To create the automatically generated row fields based on the data item, pass in true for the useDataSource parameter; otherwise, the automatically generated row fields are created based on properties of the existing row fields in the control.
