detailsView DeleteCommand -- asp.net webcontrols

Hi,

Im not really experienced with web applications. I am using vb.net
2005. I have a gridview where, when i press the select button, the
information is shown in detailsView. I chose that because gridview does
not support delete capabilities. Everything works fine :).

What I need is simple really. I want to confirm the delete command in
detailsView before it is triggered.

I tried the following code:

Protected Sub dvCountries_ItemCommand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e
As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DetailsViewCommandEventArgs) Handles
dvCountries.ItemCommand

Select Case e.CommandName

Case "Edit"

Case "Delete"

'modValidations.confirmDelete(Me) is a boolean function which returns
true if the response of
'the msgbox is true.

If modValidations.confirmDelete(Me) = True Then
' I don't know what code to put here
Else
'nothing
End If
Case Else
' Do nothing.
End Select
End Sub

How can I prevent deletion of the record? Any help would be
appreciated.

Thanks

Savvas

If you want to cancel you can use the ItemDeleting event and set the e.Cancel
property to true. Obviously you will need to be able to check for some
condition within the ItemDeleting event to determine whether or not to cancel
the delete.
