radgrid edittemplate insert/edit modes

[bob]

I have a template set up and would like to access the linkbuttons on the edittemplate form and change their text based on the mode of the grid. If i'm inserting I want that row's linkbutton.text = "insert" and if that row is not inserting, but still in edit mode linkbutton.text = "Update". As an example, if you start to edit a row, then click "Add new record", you end up with 2 editable rows. One for inserting and one for editing... I want to distinguish between the two.
any examples or idea's on how to do this?

I know I can pull the commandname from itemCommand and check for InityInsertCommand and set a form level boolean, then check against that boolean in itemcreated..

    Protected Sub rgCurrent_ItemCommand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles rgCurrent.ItemCommand
        If e.CommandName = RadGrid.InitInsertCommandName Then
            inserting = True
        End If
    End Sub

    Protected Sub rgCurrent_ItemCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs) Handles rgCurrent.ItemCreated
        If TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditableItem And e.Item.IsInEditMode and inserting Then
'This returns every editable row while in insert mode, but I want only the insert row
        End If
    End Sub

If TypeOf e.Item Is IGridInsertItem Then
ElseIf TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then
    dgItem = CType(e.Item, GridDataItem)
    FillInCheckBoxes(dgItem)
End If

this snippet of code is used for the edit item only - not the insert
