Form designer: How to customize the OnRowDataBound, DataBound, OnDataBound events

Process Design Form Designer

The ASP.NET form generated by the Form Designer already had defined .NET code for the OnRowDataBound, DataBound, and OnDataBound events.

For GridViews:

  • protected void GridView_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)

  • protected void GridView_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)

For DropDownLists and ListBoxes:

  • protected void List_OnDataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)

You cannot overwrite this code, but you can add new event handlers.

Example

DropDownListID.DataBound += new EventHandler(DropDownListID_OnDataBound);
