When configuring a SqlDataSource control in an ASP.NET webpage, after creating a Connection string, on the "Configure the Select Statement"
page, with a database table selected and columns clicked, clicking the Advanced button did not display the boxes for generating the 'Additional
INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements. Why?
I have had this problem before and the problems seemed to related to the creating a Primary Key of table. However, working a new website,
I found out I had no problem with a table without a PK, while for a table with a PK, the Advanced Insert/Update/Delete statement can not be
generated. Why?

According to your description, do you mean that vs couldn’t display the boxes for generating the 'Additional
INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements' when the table with a primary key? If so, I create a demo which has a table with primary key, and I don’t encounter the issue what you occurring.
Firstly, I select some field without primary key. The option is disabled.
Secondly, as it said, you must have all primary key fields selected for this option to enabled, I select the primary key field, it’s to be enabled.

You need to make sure that the PK is part of the SELECT statement. Then the other operations should become available.

Hi wonjartran,
According to your description, do you mean that vs couldn’t display the boxes for generating the 'Additional
INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements' when the table with a primary key? If so, I create a demo which has a table with primary key, and I don’t encounter the issue what you occurring.

Secondly, as it said, you must have all primary key fields selected for this option to enabled, I select the primary key field, it’s to be enabled.
