For information on the individual members of this class, see FormView in the class library.

The FormView control renders the contents of a single record from a data source. It is similar to the DetailsView control, except that it displays user-defined templates instead of row fields. Different user-defined templates can be assigned for viewing and updating records. Creating your own templates gives you greater flexibility in controlling how the data is displayed.

For more information on using the FormView control, see FormView Web Server Control.

The following example demonstrates how to use a FormView control to display the values from an AccessDataSource control.
