I have an asp.net 2.0 page with a gridview and detailsview on the same
page set up in a master-details scenario. The gridview and detailsview
have separate SQL data sources. The user enters search criteria in a
text box and clicks a find button to initially populate the gridview
with items of interest. I have added a select button to my gridview
and when the user clicks the button the detailsview is populated
perfectly. However, I also want the detailsview to be automatically
populated with the first item in the gridview after the user clicks the
find button. I have programatically set the SelectedIndex for the
gridview to zero in the Selected event for the SQL datasource that
drives my gridview, but this doesn't update the detailsview until I
execute another postback. How can I make this work?

Thanks!

Thansk for the reply. Your suggestion got me on the right track. I
also had to databind my DetailsView after settings the SelectedIndex in
the DataBound Event of the GridView to get this to work. I appreciate
the help!
