Specifies the function of a row in a data control, such as a DetailsView or GridView control.

ValueType

Enum
DataControlRowType

Fields

Header	0	A header row of a data control. Header rows cannot be data-bound.
Footer	1	A footer row of a data control. Footer rows cannot be data-bound.
DataRow	2	A data row of a data control. Only DataRow rows can be data-bound.
Separator	3	A row separator. Row separators cannot be data-bound.
Pager	4	A row that displays pager buttons or a pager control. Pager rows cannot be data-bound.
EmptyDataRow	5	The empty row of a data-bound control. The empty row is displayed when the data-bound control has no records to display and the `EmptyDataTemplate` template is not `null`.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the DataControlRowType enumeration to check the type of a row when working with a GridView control. The AuthorsGridView_RowCreated method ensures that the CommandArgument property of a LinkButton control is unique for all the data rows in the GridView control, so that when a row's LinkButton control is clicked, it can be identified correctly.

Remarks

The DataControlRowType enumeration identifies the function of rows in a data control. It is used by the DetailsView and GridView controls to distinguish between rows that display data and rows that display other user interface (UI) elements, such as a header row, row separator, or pager buttons.

You can use the DataControlRowType enumeration to identify the type of a GridViewRow or DetailsViewRow object when you enumerate through a GridViewRowCollection or DetailsViewRowCollection collection. If you are writing a data control that creates rows, you can use the DataControlRowType enumeration to identify the function of different rows in the control.
