bound label

[rodchar]

hey all,
if my label is bound in a formview,
there's no way to say
label.text = value at no point in time?

thanks,

Why not? Any time after databinding. The typical place is the PreRender
event.

ok, the default view is readonly and when i hit the new button to go to the
formview's insert mode i'm implementing the .Text assignments insdie the
ItemCreated event. is that too soon? because when i'm going into formview
insert template i don't do a DataBind() and the .Text assignments aren't
showing up.

It should. Likely, there is a problem somewhere in the code.

I tried the implementatioin behind the PreRender handler and it worked. But I
still
can't get it to work in ItemCreated. So you're saying it should work in
ItemCreated?
