The DataListCommandEventArgs provides event data for the following command events of a DataList.

The generic ItemCommand event is raised whenever any button associated with an item in the DataList is clicked. This provides for programmatically determining which specific command button is clicked and take appropriate action. This event is commonly used to handle custom command buttons for the DataList control.

In addition, a CancelCommand, DeleteCommand, EditCommand, or UpdateCommand event is raised whenever the corresponding cancel, delete, edit, or update button associated with an item in the DataList is clicked.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of DataListCommandEventArgs, see the DataListCommandEventArgs constructor.

For more information about handling events, see Web Forms Events Model.

The following example demonstrates how to specify and code a handler for the ItemCommand event to display additional information about the currently selected item in the DataList.
