Gets a reference to the
TableItemStyle object that allows you to set the appearance of the data row in a
FormView control when the control is in insert mode.
Namespace: System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly: System.Web (in system.web.dll)
Syntax
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public ReadOnly Property InsertRowStyle As TableItemStyle
Dim instance As FormView
Dim value As TableItemStyle
value = instance.InsertRowStyle
public TableItemStyle InsertRowStyle { get; }
public:
property TableItemStyle^ InsertRowStyle {
TableItemStyle^ get ();
}
/** @property */
public TableItemStyle get_InsertRowStyle ()
public function get InsertRowStyle () : TableItemStyle
Property Value
A reference to the
TableItemStyle that represents the style of the data row in a
FormView control when the control is in insert mode.
Remarks
Use the InsertRowStyle property to control the appearance of the data row when a FormView control is in insert mode. When the FormView control is in insert mode, the data row displays the user-defined content specified by the InsertItemTemplate property. This property is read-only; however, you can set the properties of the TableItemStyle object it returns.
The properties can be set declaratively using one of the following methods:
-
Place an attribute in the opening tag of the FormView control in the form Property-Subproperty, where Subproperty is a property of the TableItemStyle object (for example, InsertRowStyle-ForeColor).
-
Nest an <InsertRowStyle> element between the opening and closing tags of the FormView control.
The properties can also be set programmatically in the form Property.Subproperty (for example, InsertRowStyle.ForeColor). Common settings usually include a custom background color, foreground color, and font properties.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to use the InsertRowStyle property to specify a custom style for a data row when a FormView control is in insert mode.
