I hate code like this: void ProductsListView_ItemEditing(Object sender, ListViewEditEventArgs e) { ListViewItem item = ProductsListView.Items[e.NewEditIndex]; Label dateLabel = (Label)item.FindControl( “DiscontinuedDateLabel” ); if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(dateLabel.Text)) return ; //Verify if the item is discontinued. DateTime discontinuedDate = DateTime.Parse(dateLabel.Text); if (discontinuedDate < DateTime.Now) { Message.Text = “You cannot edit a discontinued item.” ; e.Cancel = true ; ProductsListView.SelectedIndex = -1; } } Indexing into the item dictionary to find the correct row to edit, then finding specific controls and casting them really sucks, there must be a better way.
