Hi,

the detailsview (default mode = insert) is used to introduce names into the
database.
I need in code-behind the introduced name. I tried this:


<asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server" DefaultMode="Insert" >
<Fields>
<asp:BoundField DataField="name" />
<asp:CommandField ShowInsertButton="True" />
</Fields>
</asp:DetailsView>


code-behind:
-------------
Protected Sub DetailsView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles DetailsView1.DataBound
dim lol as string
lol = DetailsView1.Rows(0).Cells(1).Text
Response.Write(lol)

End Sub


but this gives nothing.

Ant idea how to get the introduced name in code-behind?
Thanks
Bob
 
Hi bob,

I m not able to repplicate the issue. I am getting the desired output. I
tried the same code that you are using. Please find my aspx page.

<asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateRows="False"
DataKeyNames="CategoryID"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" Height="50px" Style="position:
static" Width="125px">
<Fields>
<asp:BoundField DataField="CategoryID"
HeaderText="CategoryID" InsertVisible="False"
ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="CategoryID" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="CategoryName"
HeaderText="CategoryName" SortExpression="CategoryName" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Description"
HeaderText="Description" SortExpression="Description" />
<asp:CommandField ShowInsertButton="True" />
</Fields>
</asp:DetailsView>

Protected Sub DetailsView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles DetailsView1.DataBound
Dim lol As String
lol = DetailsView1.Rows(0).Cells(1).Text
Response.Write(lol)
End Sub

I am getting the text from the 1st column in row 0.

Thanks for replying, but i still get nothing.
What do you get?

i tried this: DetailsView1.Rows(0).Cells(0).Text
but this gives me the headertext ("name") of the field and not the entered
value.

What i want is what the user types into the textbox embedded into the
detailsview.
But now i was thinking: is it not to early to use DetailsView1_DataBound,
because at that stage, nothing is entered into the textbox of the
detailsview?

???
