Ok, I am databinding to a FormView control no problem.

No matter which mode I am in, "Edit" or "Insert" mode.

When a broken business rule is triggered, on the post back I am losing all data.

Why is this happening?

Also, is there a way I could do a Ajax to update the objects data so I can avoid the postback issue?

If so, how do I get access to the "e.values("MyField")" in Ajax?

What are my options here?

Thanks,
Mark

Nice that u figured it out.

Did u forget to use sessions or cookies?
I remember ajax's updatepanel to only update a small part of the website, works nice.

There is an "ModeChanging" event on the FormView control.

If the BO has an invalid business rule.

Just do a e.cancel = true in the event.

That should do the trick.
