Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to declaratively set the ItemStyle property on the BoundField objects used to display FirstName and LastName data in a DetailsView control. The DetailsView control has the AutoGenerateRows property set to false, which enables it to display a subset of the data returned by the SelectCommand property.
