Question

I have a gridview and have modified it following this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa992036.aspx#Y3473
to allow bulk updates. Whenever I try to update a row in this loop:

For Each r As GridViewRow In GridView1.Rows
        If IsRowModified(r) Then GridView1.UpdateRow(r.RowIndex, False)
    Next

I get this error:

You have specified that your update command compares all values on
SqlDataSource ‘ARDataSource’, but the dictionary passed in for
oldValues is empty. Pass in a valid dictionary for update or change
your mode to OverwriteChanges.

I have no idea what this could be caused by?

Answer 1

Change ConflictDetection from CompareAllValues to OverwriteChanges.
SqlDataSource.ConflictDetection Property
