ASP .NET Data Displays

[Guest]

Hello!

I have a question that has me stumped. I have a master-detail relationship
that I’m working with. What I want is a master row, and then below this, a
row that has an editable DataGrid with the details. Would the repeater
control to the job? I have tried using it, but can’t figure out how to bind
the detail data to the DataGrid that would display it. Do any of you have
ideas or articles to recommend?

Thanks
JMax

Take a look at the new ASP.NET 2.0 controls to make your life simple. There
are a new set of grid controls that handle master - detail relationships and
updating the details.

No, I don't believe the repeater allows editing. You can use a datagrid in
place of the repeater though. It would be two datagrids on the page, that
pushes a lot of traffic back and forth but its workable .
