Use DetailsView and FormView to display a single data item at a time
<![CDATA[
DetailsView: Displays a single data item in an HTML table.
This control enables you to display, page, edit, and add data.
FormView: Uses a template to display a single data item. Unlike the DetailsView, a FormView enables you to layout a form by using templates.
