dynamic html vs dynamic formview/detailsView

[Guest]

hey all,
can someone please help me decide on which way to go. i get a single untyped
data table which can contain different fields and values at different times.
so i'm thinking i would dynamically generate the html table which would take
care of displaying the data.

but would it be better or the same to use a formview or detailsview
dynamically?

thanks,
rodchar

rodchar,

Why not use the DataGrid class in ASP.NET? It will get you most of the
way there, I think. You just have to make sure that the AutoGenerateColumns
property is set to true, and then assign your data source.

because this is a detail record.
