Hi Kyle,
I'm not sure what you have tried so far but I am doing the exact same
thing. In the "SelectedIndexChanged" event of your gridview use the
following:
YourFormView.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit)
The cancel button in your formview will make it go back to insert
automatically.
If you are using sorting on your gridview, I advise the following in
the gridview's "Sorted" event also:
GridView.SelectedIndex = -1
YourFormView.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Insert)
...because the sort may leave the same physical row selected but the
sort will mean a different record will be in it. (This is what is
happening in my gridview bound to a custom sort anyway)
