Use the ItemType property to determine the type of a DataListItem in a DataList control.

The following example demonstrates how to use the ItemType property to determine the type of an item in a DataList control. The order in which the items are positioned in the DataList is displayed along with the item type.

foreach ( DataListItem item in myDataList.Items ) {
   msg.Text += "<br>" + item.ItemIndex + " " + item.ItemType;
}

dim item as DataListItem
for each item in myDataList.Items
   msg.Text &= "<br>" & item.ItemIndex & " " & item.ItemType
next
