DataGridView in ASP.NET

[AKtuality]

Hi

I am quite new to the ASP.NET framework and I am trying to design a datagridview table that does the following:

1. Retrive data from an existing database using a connection string
2. Displays that data
3. Allows user to edit and make changes to every row in the datagridview.
4. Allows to user to insert data (at the footer) into the dataset through the datagridview table using textboxes and dropdownlists
5. The dropdownlist contains elements from another database retrieved through another connection string.

lets say for example that my dataset contained the following columns:
1. ID Number
2. First Name
3. Last Name

Thank You in advance

The Control itself does not include all the functionality you describe.. however most of it is easy to do with a combination of pages and controls..

Draw up something and I'll be glad to help you debug it...

BTW .. I personally prefer to use the DataRepeater to the DataGridView in a Web App, It gives me more control and flexability with big long lists..

You could do what your describing using a code first method using an entity framework object. Watch this video and see if it helps.
