FormView.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit) not working

[David Thielen]

Hi;

I have the following code:
if (!IsPostBack)
{
if (MyPerson.Id == DbUtils.NULL_PK)
formRegister.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Insert);
else
formRegister.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit);
}

For Insert it wors fine. For Edit it shows nothing in the FormView and the
OnDataBound method is never called. I have a
<EditItemTemplate>...</EditItemTemplate> block of html

Any ideas?

Hi Dave,

I cannot see any problem from your posted code. Would you please post a
complete code listing that could reproduce the issue? Thanks.

My first wild guess would be:

1) The data binding code is never called
2) To change to edit mode, the FormView will need a current record
