Thanks for your reply...
I am using .NET 3.5
In the data source where I populate the gridview, i hard code in a row
at the top of the results and then UNION that into the rest of the
results so I get a blank line at the top of the gridview.... then I
manipulate the EDIT/Delete buttons as seen below.... I am using an
example I found before and tweaked it some but it doesnt work...
Protected Sub GridView1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e
As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles
GridView1.RowDataBound
If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then
If e.Row.RowIndex = 0 Then
If e.Row.RowState = DataControlRowState.Normal Then
Dim lnkBtn0 As LinkButton =
CType(e.Row.Cells(0).Controls(0), LinkButton)
lnkBtn0.Text = "Add" 'Change the text of Edit
LinkButton to "Add"
e.Row.Cells(0).Controls.RemoveAt(2) 'Remove the
Delete LinkButton
e.Row.Cells(0).Controls.RemoveAt(1) 'Remove the
space LiteralControl between Edit and Delete
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
Protected Sub GridView1_RowUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewUpdateEventArgs) Handles
GridView1.RowUpdating
If e.RowIndex = 0 Then
'Creating a hashtable and store data to it
Dim hsh As New System.Collections.Hashtable
For Each x As System.Collections.DictionaryEntry In
e.NewValues
hsh(x.Key.ToString) = x.Value
Next
'Now that we have the data to update our DB in a
hashtable.
'You just need to write a method to update your database
using the hash table.
'As in this code, I have a Sub named AddStoreRecord which
takes a hastable as argument and insert a new record to DB.
SharedStuffs.AddStoreRecord(hsh)
End If
End Sub
