Hello

In the Wrox United example website that comes with the book, ASP.NET 2.0 Beginner, on the Match Reports page a selectable field called 'More Details' has been implemented. On selecting this field the match report is displayed.

See WroxUnited/MatchReports.aspx
<asp:CommandField ShowSelectButton="True" SelectText="More Details"></asp:CommandField>

This field is always displayed whether a match report has been written or not. Is there a way of only displaying this field if a match report has been written? Presumeably I would have to check for Fixture Id in the Match Reports Table but not sure how to tie this to the command field.

Thanks for any pointers on this.

Hi Andy,

I don't know the article, nor do I have time to read it, but I do know that you can convert the field to a template field, then handle the OnRowDataBound event. In the event you can hide the buttons if the fixture ID is NULL.
