Public Function FindMetaTable (current As Control) As MetaTable

Parameters

current: Control

The current control.

MetaTable

The metatable object for the containing data control.

Examples

The following example shows how to find the MetaTable object for a control. In the example, the Dynamic Data page templates are copied to the \DynamicData\CustomPages\ProductDescriptions folder to provide a custom display for the ProductDescription table of the AdventureWorksLT database. The Insert.aspx file markup is changed to add an OnDataBound event handler named DetailsView1_DataBound, in which the FindMetaTable method is called to find the MetaTable object.
