i have a formview with the edit, delete and new buttons. i want to make the property of lifeupload to be visible when the user click the edit or insert button???? how to make that as i wrote the following code but it did not work for me:


Protected Sub FormView1_ItemCommand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As FormViewCommandEventArgs)

        If (e.CommandName.Equals("Edit")) Then
            'Page.Button1.Visible = True
            CType(Page.FindControl("Button1"), Button).Visible = True

        ElseIf (e.CommandName.Equals("New")) Then
            Button1.Visible = True

         End If

    End Sub

regards

try the following step with in the ItemCommand method

'Declare object for the controls you have

Dim but1 as Button

'.....rest of button declaration

  If e.CommandName = "Edit" Then
            but1=CType(Page.FindControl("Button1"),Button)
            but1.visible=True
elseif e.CommandName="New" then
         ' ...Other button declaration as per your need...
      end if

thank you very much
regards
