Opening a detail page and passing a record ID (ASP.NET)
After adding a DataGrid to the master page, you must create links that open the detail page and
pass the ID of the record that the user selected. The detail page will use this ID to find the
requested record in the database and display it.
The record ID is passed to the detail page in a URL parameter. For more information, see
parameters" on page
In a DataGrid, you create these links by turning a column in the DataGrid into a hyperlink
column and setting its attributes, as described in this section.

user clicked:
