Hide column not working in Dynamic Data

I found this link:
http://csharpbits.notaclue.net/2008/10/dynamic-data-hiding-columns-in-selected.html

and have added all the sample code to my project. But, if you searched for "DetailsView1", you'd see the code I do not know how to replace.

Could anyone please tell me what variable to use?

Attached is the ASP.NET script for the page.

Thanks,

> use FormView1

This failed since 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView' does not contain a definition for 'RowsGenerator' and no extension method 'RowsGenerator' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormView' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

> Change your FormView for DetailView and the ID for DetailView1 and see.
I don't know what you mean. Could you please explain this more clearly?
