Hi! I want the detailsview cancel button to redirect the page into another page. What is the event to configure so that the response.redirect statement can be inserted?

Hi there,

There are a few ways to do this:

1. Handle the ItemCommand of the DetailsView and then check e.CommandName:

protected void DetailsView1_ItemCommand(object sender, DetailsViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
  switch (e.CommandName)
  { .. }
}

2. Convert the CommandField into a TemplateField and then manually wire up the Cancel button to a Click handler in the code behind.

Hope this helps,

Imar

I have used the 2nd option and I implemented:

Dim Linkbutton2 As LinkButton = _ CType(DetailsView1.FindControl("LinkButton2"), LinkButton)

Linkbutton2.<What should I insert here?> = String.Concat("CustomerInsert.aspx?EmployeeID=", Request("EmployeeID"))

What should I insert there?

Thanks

I have implemented another way:

<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton2" runat="server" CausesValidation="False"
OnClick="Cancel_Sub" CommandName="Cancel" ext="Cancel"></asp:LinkButton>


Protected Sub Cancel_Sub()
        Response.Redirect("CustomerView.aspx?EmployeeID=" & Request("EmployeeID"))
    End Sub

Yes, that's the solution I had in mind as well....
