First Try With DataList

[Jim Heavey]

Hello, I am trying the DataList control for the first time and I am not
able to get the information to show up in the control.

I know that there is data in my data table.

My DataList has a field which is bound to a column in my data table with
the following code..

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Button Text="Edit" CommandName="Select" Runat="server">
</asp:Button>
&nbsp;
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Narrative" ) %>
</ItemTemplate>

I use the following code to bind my dataList to the datatable.

dlHighlights.DataSource=dtHighlights;
dlHighlights.DataBind();

The statements above execute, but no data is displayed. Any Ideas as to
why?

Never mind, I found that I was not adding my rows to the datatable.
