Inserting/Updating/Deleting DetailsView w/o datasource controls?

[satchi]

Hi, I have this sql server db where I want to update, create new records, and delete records from a DetailsView, without the use of asp's datasource controls. I have been reading that I need to manually write code to do these in the DetailsView1_ItemInserting, _ItemUpdating, _ItemDeleting, and _ModeChanging events.

Can anyone help me get started, namely the updating portion? I cant seem to find any tutorials related to creating w/o the use of datasource controls.

protected void dvProducts_ModeChanging(object sender, DetailsViewModeEventArgs e)
    {
        dvProducts.ChangeMode(e.NewMode);
        BindView();
    }

I think I got the ModeChanging event done, but I'm stuck on updating, and inserting...

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance..

you can look for samples of these things with the datagrid. those samples wont use the datasource controls and will have what you need.
