insert below the header in gridview and not in the footer?

Question

using asp.net/sqldatasource/vb

Is there a way to place the insert row below the header in a gridview instead of in the footer?

No. Not that I'm aware of anyway.

You'd need to create a custom control which inhertis from the GridView class and override one of the Render methods. Or just write your own control.

A simplier method though, would be to hide the GridView header, create a html table that is the same style as the GridView header with a insert row below and then just place it directly above your GridView. Cheating in a way - but it'll work as long as you have all the columns at the same width in your GridView and your html table.
