I have a DetailsView control, and it has several fields that may contain
over 100 characters.  Once I click "Edit" for the control, the field
shrinks to almost 15-20 characters.  Is there a way around this so the
initial width of the field stays the same even when I click edit so the
user can view the whole field value rather than just a small portion?
The DataGrid control seems to do the same thing.
Thanks!
