Remarks

Use the DataKeyNames property to specify a comma-separated list of field names that represent the primary key of the data source. When the DataKeyNames property is set, the FormView control automatically creates a DataKey object that contains the key/value pairs of the field or fields listed in the DataKeyNames property for the current record. The DataKey object is then stored in the DataKey property.

Note

You must set the DataKeyNames property for the built-in updating, deleting, and inserting features of the FormView control to work.
