Remarks

The DetailsView control raises the ItemUpdated event when an Update button (a button with its CommandName property set to "Update") within the control is clicked, but after the DetailsView control updates the record. This allows you to provide an event handler that performs a custom routine, such as checking the results of an update operation, whenever this event occurs.

A DetailsViewUpdatedEventArgs object is passed to the event handler, which allows you to determine the number of records affected and any exceptions that might have occurred. To determine the number of records affected by the update operation, use the AffectedRows property. Use the Exception property to determine whether any exceptions occurred. You can also indicate whether the exception was handled in the event handler by setting the ExceptionHandled property. If you need to access the key field values for the updated record, use the Keys property. The original and updated non-key field values can be accessed using the OldValues and NewValues properties, respectively.

By default, the DetailsView control returns to the mode specified by the DefaultMode property after an update operation. To keep the DetailsView control in edit mode, set the KeepInEditMode property to true.

For more information about handling events, see Consuming Events.

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

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the DetailsViewUpdatedEventArgs object passed to the event handler for the ItemUpdated event to determine whether an exception occurred during an update operation.
