FormView ItemUpdated: NewValues array not getting values on update

[Michael Glass]

I'm working on an ASP.Net web app using VS2005 and the .Net 2.0 framework,
and I have a serious problem with the page I'm currently working on. The page
has, among other things, two FormViews and a GridView control, each with its
own SqlDataSource. FormView1 talks to my Opportunity table and has an
ItemTemplate and an EditItemTemplate. FormView2 talks to my Activities table
and has an ItemTemplate, InsertItemTemplate and an EditItemTemplate. The
GridView only reads data from the Activities table and does not appear to
affect this problem. All of the controls read from the tables with no problem
and switch modes with no problem, but when going into Update mode, changing
something and clicking the Update button, it does not save the information to
the tables. As far as I can tell, the problem is that the program is not
passing updated information to the NewValues array that you can access from
the ItemUpdating event args. This is driving me nuts. The code and markup
looks fine to me, in fact I have a page with similar information on it that
works fine. Any ideas?

Hi MGlass,

Welcome to ASPNET newsgroup.
Regarding on the FormView updating problem, I think it is likely a page
specific issue. From you description, you've checked the FormView's
ItemUpdating event and found that the FormView EventArgs dosn't contains
the updated values in the new values colleciton ,yes? If so, I think the
problem may caused by something incorrect in the FormView's aspx template.
Would you try comparing the problem page with the other page which works
correctly to see whether there is any diference?

Also, you can test through a sample database table like the Categories
table in northwind db to see whether you'll encounter the same problem.

If there're anything else unclear, please feel free to post here.

Thanks,

Hi Steven. I would also think that the problem is page-specific, however I
can't see any real difference in the page that works and the page that
doesn't, except for the fact that the page that works only has one formview
and that's it. That FormView is nearly identical to one on the page that
doesn't work; in fact, I copied and pasted the markup to keep the formatting
correct. I've been over the page a bunch of times and I can't see anything
wrong jumping out at me. If there is an error there, it's very subtle.

I will try to refactor to access from the Northwind database, and I'm going
to attempt to rebuild the page as well. Thanks.
