Hide Edit and New buttons in a formview

[Dennis]

I have a basic formview with edit and new buttons. I would like to
hide the buttons if the user is not a member of certain groups. I
know the code looks like this, but I can't figure out where the code
needs to be called from because it errors if the controls don't
exist.

If Not
Roles.IsUserInRole(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("PowerUsers"))
Then
fvwCustomer.FindControl("EditButton").Visible = False
fvwCustomer.FindControl("NewButton").Visible = False
End If

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Dennis,

Have you tried placing it in an onLoad Event?

Shaun, I had it in the Page onLoad. I finally got around it by
removing the buttons from the formview and putting them on the page
itself. But it still bugs me that I couldn't get it to work the other
way.
