I am using formview to pull the data from DB for user to view and edit. I would like to be able to insert system date and username into the DB if user edits the row. I have placed an insert statement into "Update" section of the datasource so that all
fields are pre generated when user clicks edit and when submitted it creates a new row in the DB so we can record change history. so I would like to generate the username and updated date fields with system date and system username. any help is appreciated.
thanks
Private Sub FormView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.DataBound
Select Case FormView1.CurrentMode
Case FormViewMode.Edit
Protected Sub FormView1_ModeChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Handles FormView1.ModeChanged
If FormView1.DefaultMode = FormViewMode.Insert Then
Dim tb As TextBox = CType(FormView1.FindControl("UsernameTextBox"), TextBox)
tb.Text = User.Identity.Name
End If
End Sub
I cant get it to work. not sure why. here is my code. It just wont generate the username in the text box so when I enter update it wont write it to SQL
Protected Sub FormView1_DataBound(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
If FormView1.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit Then
Dim tb As TextBox = DirectCast(FormView1.FindControl

How do I bind User.Identit.Name to a text box in the formview? I can do it if the textbox is outside og the formview.

Private Sub FormView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.DataBound
Select Case FormView1.CurrentMode
Case FormViewMode.Edit
Textbox textbox2 = (Textbox)Formview1.findcontrol("textbox2") textbox2.Text= User.Identity.Name
End Select
End Sub
