>I see that the poster there, like you, says that the Dataset used as the datasource for the gridview is stored as a session variable. If that is the case can't you just use the same session reference as the datasource for the FormView ?
I can not. The GridView dataset uses only small subset of fields. FormView uses SQLDataSource with StoredProcedure in UpdateCommand.

The poster there is me, BTW :)
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
