Direct Data Access

[coolego1]

Hello,
I am new to ASP.net programming. I know a bit about ASP, but not so
much the new .NET framework. I have been playing with the data
controls that are available, but I have not figured out how to get a
simple dataset out of the controls. I would like to select data one
row at a time and then act based on the stuff that is returned.
Essentially, I would like to write my own Repeater using the old style
controls, but I can't figure out how to do it.

Hello colego1,

Weclome to the world of asp.net and the idea is very different, it
takes a bit time if you are not use to it.

I'm not sure which data control are you talking about, do you mean the
sqldatasouce control? We have a repeater control, which you can bind
it to the sqldatasource control.

To act upon the data received, you manipulate the data from repeater
control instead of messing with the sql data source. Repeater expose
an onItemDataBound event, do a google search, you should be able to
find it.
