Remarks

The GridView control raises the RowUpdating event when a row's Update button is clicked, but before the GridView control updates the row. This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as canceling the update operation, whenever this event occurs.

A GridViewUpdateEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method, which allows you to determine the index of the current row and to indicate that the update operation should be canceled. To cancel the update operation, set the Cancel property of the GridViewUpdateEventArgs object to true. You can also manipulate the Keys, OldValues, and NewValues collections, if necessary, before the values are passed to the data source. A common way to use these collections is to HTML-encode the values supplied by the user before they are stored in the data source. This helps to prevent script injection attacks.

For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of GridViewUpdateEventArgs, see the GridViewSelectEventArgs constructor.

Constructors

GridViewUpdateEventArgs(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the GridViewUpdateEventArgs class.

Properties

Cancel	Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled. (Inherited from CancelEventArgs)
Keys	Gets a dictionary of field name/value pairs that represent the primary key of the row to update.
NewValues	Gets a dictionary containing the revised values of the non-key field name/value pairs in the row to update.
OldValues	Gets a dictionary containing the original field name/value pairs in the row to update.
RowIndex	Gets the index of the row being updated.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
