displaying data from a dataset in a datagrid

[Machelle]

Good Morning All,

I'm a new developer trying to use a datagrid to display
the results of a query referenced in my stored
procedure. I'm using ADO.NET & SQL Server 2000.

I have several questions:

1. Is the below code to fill the data set and bind the
datasource to the data grid supposed to be in the Page
Load event code or in the Web Form Designer Generated
Code?

'Fill the dataset
DsFinTrngDB1.Tables.Add(New DataTable
("dtAllCurriculum"))
DsFinTrngDB1.Tables(0).BeginLoadData()
daFinTrngDB.Fill(DsFinTrngDB1, "dtAllCurriculum")
DsFinTrngDB1.Tables(0).EndLoadData()
dgFinTrngDB.DataSource = DsFinTrngDB1.Tables
(0).DefaultView

2. If I build & browse the page in Visual Studio, should
I be able to see the data in the grid in the browser, or
is it just visible when running on the real web server? I
just have IIS loaded on my pc.

3. What am I missing in my code below? Why don't I see
data in my grid when I view the page in the browser?

Hi

are you sure whether data exists in database. If data
exist in database you should be able to view in webpage.
