Datalist Question

[Guest]

Hi guys, I want to bind datalist to a table in database. I only want to
display 4 values per row. Would datalist be a good choice or is there any
other control that i can use? The number of elements returned from database
can vary.
Can someone please post code on how this can be done? I am using VB .NET.

Thanks

Manny

What you want to do is use the DataList's ItemTemplate. You should take a
look at the docs to get you started:

and this too for more details on the template:
