Opening a DEtailsView without a GridView directly from the menu
Is it possible to open DetailsView in Insert Mode ,direcly from the menu. I mean I don't woant to open the GridsViews first and then the details View.
I need to implement a "Create na new user functionality." To do that , I want that whenever I click "New user" menu, A details View in insert mode is opened.
Yes I am opeing details View Mode in insert mode, whenever I click the menu New user, but it first opens the gird view and i click the edit or new button in any of the rows, then a details view in inser mode is opened. I want to get rid of this Grid view from this functioanlity, and want DEtialsView to be directly associated with the New user menu

Changing mode for a dEtailsMode is not a problem, As it is in my question description, that I want to use details view to create a new user, and i should not be dependant to any gridview. Just like we create an new page for new user creation , that page is openied against a menu. I am doing all that stuff in detailsview insert mode.
The only thing I needed is t owork only with DetailsView ion this page.
I hope you have understood my question

Can't you add a gridview, with only an inserttemplate then?
Why not use a Gridview for this? And maybe you can change your topic title, because this is probably the confusing part of your question.

Can you take a look at this: http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStartv20/aspnet/doc/ctrlref/data/detailsview.aspx
The last example is doing what you expect I believe.. see the button "Add new author"

I do not want to use a grid view, my question is simple clear, that I need to use DEtailsView in insert mode independetly of Gridview against the Menu items. Need some idea of how to use detailsview independently
I understand that, but If you take a look at the code behind of the example, perhaps you can add the same behind your menu-structure. The example will open a new, empty, detailview where you can insert your data.
Also here you can find an example where no gridview is used
