In asp.net 1.x we used something like
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "FieldName") for binding data.

Now, in asp.net 2.0 I see a lot of "Eval( fieldname )" and not the
older format.
I guess they are equivalent, but I can't find information about the
difference.
I suspect the new Eval does not work exactly the way the old
DataBinder.Eval used to work.
 
For the most part, they are the same..they just decided to make it so we had
to type less :)
