(Using VS.Net 2005)
What are the best practices for conditionally turning on/off
INSERT/EDIT/DELETE features in the Datagrid and Detailsview controls?
In other words, depending on a user's security level, certain
insert/edit/delete buttons should be made invisible. I don't see a way
to do with within the HTML of the Datagrid control.

Thanks in advance

Mike,

You have to do that in the code-behind. You'll need to check the user's role
there and then set the grid/view appropriately.

ok, that's what I was doing. Just wanted to make sure that's the
common practice.
