System.Web.UI.WebControls Namespace   DetailsView Class

---

.NET Framework version 2.0

Occurs when an Insert command button within a DetailsView control is clicked, but before the insert operation.

[ VB ]
Public Event ItemInserting As DetailsViewInsertEventHandler

[ C# ]
public event DetailsViewInsertEventHandler ItemInserting;

[ C++ ]
public: __event DetailsViewInsertEventHandler* ItemInserting;

In [ JScript ], you can handle the events defined by a class, but you cannot define your own.

The ItemInserting event is raised whenever an Insert button associated with an item in the DetailsView control is clicked, but before the DetailsView control inserts the record.

This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as checking the values of a record before inserting it in the data source, whenever this event occurs.

Information related to the ItemInserting event is passed via a DetailsViewInsertEventArgs object to the method assigned to handle the event. The following DetailsViewInsertEventArgs properties provide information specific to this event.

Property	Description
Cancel	Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled ( inherited from CancelEventArgs )
CommandArgument	Gets the command argument for the insert operation passed to the DetailsView control.
Values	Gets a dictionary that contains the field name/value pairs for the record to insert.
