DetailsView.CurrentMode Property
Assembly: System.Web (in system.web.dll)
Use the CurrentMode property to determine whether the DetailsView control is in edit, insert, or read-only mode. The following table lists the different mode values.
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| DetailsViewMode.Edit | The DetailsView control is in edit mode, which allows the user to update the values of a record. |
| DetailsViewMode.Insert | The DetailsView control is in insert mode, which allows the user to add a new record to the data source. |
