Remarks

The ItemCreated event is raised each time a record is created in a DetailsView control. This can occur when the control is first rendered, or when the user navigates to another record. You can use this event to provide an event handler that performs a custom routine, such as adding custom content to a row, whenever this event occurs.

You can access the header, footer, and pager rows in the DetailsView control by using the HeaderRow, FooterRow, TopPagerRow, or BottomPagerRow properties, respectively. To access one of the data rows, use the Rows collection.

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