gridview edit and delete

[J]

I like the Edit (Update, Cancel) functionality built into the gridview, but
I'd like to control what happens when the Update is clicked. I would like
to prompt the user with something like this "category has changed from
'something' to 'something else', shall I process related records? (yes/no)".
I would also like to confirm when a user clicks Delete.

Here's how I currently have the gridview configured:

<asp:GridView ID="gvMyGridVie w" runat="server" AllowSorting="T rue"
AutoGenerateCol umns="False" DataKeyNames="B igId" DataSourceID="s dsMonday">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="Stag e" HeaderText="Des cription"
SortExpression= "Stage" />
<asp:CommandFie ld ShowEditButton= "True" />
<asp:CommandFie ld ShowDeleteButto n="True" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>

Thanks.

Re: gridview edit and delete

Convert the column in question into a template and then do something like
this:

<ItemTemplate >
<asp:LinkButt on ID="lnkDelete" runat="server" CausesValidatio n="false"
CommandName="De lete" Text="Delete"
OnClientClick=" return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this
record?');" />
</ItemTemplate>
