I used a very simple method to basically do this. edit/delete in the grid, but still have the FormView for insert.

To accomplish this, start with a custom page that is a copy of ListDetails.aspx. Then set these on your GridView: AutoGenerateSelectButton="false" AutoGenerateDeleteButton="true" AutoGenerateEditButton="true"

That will get you the Edit\Delete buttons in the grid, but no Select since there won't be a form view except on new.

Then in the FormView edit the templates. For "ItemTemplate" remove the asp:DynamicEntity and the link buttons other than the "New" button. For "EditItemTemplate" remove it completely. Then leave the InsertItemTemplate as is.

That's it. The result is you get your GridView with a "New" button beneath it. When you click it, the Form shows up to insert\cancel the new item.

For editing\deleting, you do it right from the GridView.

Hi, Steve.

I'm new to Dynamic Data Websites and tried to implement a few tables with couple of foreign keys. When I use the filter built in for the Dynamic Data Website default.aspx page, the page take 5 minutes or so to load. One table with 40 columns, only had 4000 records. When I tried to filter using the dropdown, the page takes a long time to load the filtered data. Is there any reason for this slow performance?

Thanks in advance!

The download says this version includes the first two parts of the series but when I run it there are no tabs for the sub-tables do I have to change something to apply this feature with the new insert feature of this article?

Hey there, I think I got the code examples here converted to DD4 VS2010 and it all compiles and runs. However, I have two tables (PurchaseOrders and LineItems) they have a one to many relationship (so when you create a PurchaseOrder, you can create multiple Line Items that are tied to that PurchaseOrder) when it tries to load the List.aspx page using the SynamicLinkControl - it sends an error about the "DataBinding: 'DynamicClass1' does not contain a property with the name 'ItemID'"
- Any ideas as to why it can't see LineItems ItemID?

Cool deal. Thank you for the suggestion.

Because this is templated control you could create a custom template just for edit or you could rewrite the Edit Template generator as a sperate routine that produces the form like view.

I want to have a view for inline editing. However, I want the edit view display columns vertically rather than horizontally. This is an example: http://www.crowellsolutions.com/Images/InlineEditGrid.jpg

I tried your suggestion and this is as far as I got.
var lkbEdit = new LinkButton()
{
//ID = "EditLinkButton",
//CommandName = "Edit", Commented out by Dan Crowell
PostBackUrl = _table.GetActionPath(PageAction.Edit, _page.GetDataItem()), // Added by Dan Crowell
Text = "Edit",
CausesValidation = false,
};
I received an error stating that Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.

Do you mean have a details view for editing?
I'd change the
var lkbEdit = new LinkButton()
{
//ID = "EditLinkButton",
CommandName = "Edit",
Text = "Edit",
CausesValidation = false,
};
just remove the CommandName and calculate the NavigationUrl that way it is on the normal List page using:
table.GetActionPath(PageAction.Edit, GetDataItem())

I think your DynamicLinkControl has a bug. If the DataContext is specified in another dll the BuildManager call fails. I fixed this by adding my own code to handle this and load the DataContext using the full path.

I am though still having trouble hooking up a templated page to the ValidationControl?

The FormViewPageColumnBuilder builds the correct looking aspx but when i update an item the exception is not caught and managed. Is this something to do with where the DynamicManager is registering? Do I need to register again somehow after template creation?
