<Extension()>
Public Function FindDataSourceControl (current As Control) As IDynamicDataSource

Parameters

current: Control

A control inside the hierarchy of a data-bound control whose containing control you want to find.

Returns

IDynamicDataSource

The data source that is associated with the data control for the specified control.

Examples

The following example shows how to find the containing data source control. In the example, the Dynamic Data page templates are copied to the \DynamicData\CustomPages\ProductDescriptions folder to provide a custom display for the ProductDescription table of the AdventureWorksLT database. The Insert.aspx file markup is changed to add an OnDataBound event handler named DetailsView1_DataBound, in which the FindDataSourceControl method is called to find the data source control.
