Remarks

Each data row in the DetailsView control is represented by a row field. When the AutoGenerateRows property is set to true, an automatically generated bound row field is created for each field in the data source. Each field is then displayed in a row as text, in the order in which each field appears in the data source.

Note

Automatically generated bound row fields are not added to the Fields collection.

Automatically generating the rows provides a quick and easy way to display every field in the record. However, to make use of the DetailsView control's advanced capabilities you must explicitly declare the row fields to include in the DetailsView control. For more information, see Fields.

Note

Explicitly declared row fields can be used in combination with automatically generated row fields. When both are used, explicitly declared row fields are rendered first, followed by the automatically generated row fields.

The value of AutoGenerateRows is stored in view state.
