The type of dynamic control in the InstantiateIn () method of ITemplate based on the DataItem properties. Is there any way?

I have a simple one GridView; something like this for a regular line Itemor AlternatingItem:

+----+-------------+----------+
| ID | Description | Value    |
+====+=============+==========+
| 01 | Some text   | 0.082    |
+----+-------------+----------+
| 02 | Some text   | Yes      |
+----+-------------+----------+
| 02 | Some text   | 9/4/2009 |
+----+-------------+----------+

When the user selects Change row in GridView, only the "Value" column should become editable. I want to somehow DataItemvisualize a control based on the property of this line (in my case, either regular TextBoxfor decimal values, a DropDownListfor logical "Yes / No", or something else complicated, like a TextBoxwith some calendar control) to edit this values ​​based on its type.

So, for starters, an object containing the above information has a property DataFormatthat has a value that I need to determine which control to display. I have a user control ITemplate. His method InstantiateIn()looks like this:

Public Sub InstantiateIn(ByVal container As Control) Implements ITemplate.InstantiateIn
    Select Case Me.ItemType
        Case UDFTemplate.Value
            Dim valueLabel As New Label()
            AddHandler valueLabel.DataBinding, AddressOf ControlDataBinding
            container.Controls.Add(valueLabel)

        Case UDFTemplate.EditValue
            ' I don't always want a text box... I want to decide what to create here.
            Dim editBox As New TextBox()
            editBox.Columns = 15
            AddHandler editBox.DataBinding, AddressOf ControlDataBinding
            container.Controls.Add(editBox)
    End Select
End Sub

My goal is to somehow get to the property DataItemfor GridViewRowwhich I am participating in to decide what type of control will be created in the method InstantiateIn().

Is it possible? I thought I would do it in such a way as to keep it clean and all in one place.
