e.newvalues looking at the e.oldvalues in gridview_row updating event

[loga123]

Hi All,

I am using asp.net 2.0. I have a gridview with
AutoGenerateEditButton="True" .
I am trying to access newValues in rowupdating event. It gives me
"oldvalues" collection.
I have
a) datakeynames property set
b) I am using template fields in my gridview and have "EVAL" for
ItemTemplate and "BIND" for EditItemTemplate
c) I have datasourceID and updatestatement set.
d) I set DataMember="DefaultView"


I am not sure what am I missing. I have worked before with gridview row

update/delete..but never faced such problem.


I want to validate the user input before my row is updated. I
think...we can do this in rowupdating event before row is updated.

I am not sure why e.newvalues collection is returning the oldvalues.


any help is greatly appreciated.
