Programmatic Click

[randy.buchholz]

Am I missing something simple? I can't find a way to click a
button/linkbutton from my C# code. Specifically, I am trying to fire the
"New" button in a Details View to switch to insert mode.

Use the following line, replacing Button1 with the name of your "New" button:

((IPostBackEventHandler)Button1).RaisePostBackEvent(null);

Cool! Thanks.

Use the following line, replacing Button1 with the name of your "New"
button:

((IPostBackEventHandler)Button1).RaisePostBackEvent(null);

What you are missing is the fact that the Click event is supposed to
be fired by the User on the client. If you want to put the DetailsView
control into Insert mode programmatically then just do this:

YourDetailsView.ChangeMode(DetailsViewMode.Insert)
