Event not firing for detailsview

Question

I have a detailsview that opens when you select a row in the gridview. It opens in edit mode as the default. When I click the "Update" button, niether the updated or updating events fire. I have put breakpoints on each and it just passes over them. What am I missing or not understanding? Thank you for any advice or assistance.

Here is the code.

C#

protected void DetailsView1_ItemUpdated(object sender, DetailsViewUpdatedEventArgs e)
        {
            ddl = this.DetailsView1.Rows[0].Cells[1].FindControl("ddlfunctions") as DropDownList;
            function = ddl.SelectedItem.ToString();

            ddlseg = this.DetailsView1.Rows[1].Cells[1].FindControl("ddlSegment") as DropDownList;
            segment = ddlseg.SelectedItem.ToString();
        }

ASP.NET

<asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server" onmodechanging="DetailsView1_ModeChanging" OnItemUpdated="DetailsView1_ItemUpdated"
          DefaultMode="Edit" CssClass="panelStyle" OnDataBound="DetailsView1_DataBound" CausesValidation="false" ></DetailsView>

Also, I am not sure the code in the event is accurate, I just know its not getting reached and the detailsview is only there in portion to show the pertinent items.

Ctrl+Alt+P use this short cut to attach to process.once you attach to process it will start debuging

Debugging is not the issue, the deteailsview onitemupdated event is not firing when I hit the update button.

Solution 1

1. Have you defined the SQLDataSource for the dataview to use?
2. If Yes, Does the SQLDatasource defined has the Updatecommand with Update Parameters?
3. Does the DataView is bound to the SQLDatasource?
4. Do you the Inbuilt Update button or a Customized button?
5. If customized button have you called the DetailsView1.UpdateItem(false) method?

Thank you, I was using a custom button and calling the UpdateItem method made it fire. I still need to figure out the code to update the database with the correct values though.
