How to display only the cells of a DataTable that are different from those
in the preceding row?

Thanks,

Keith
 
Keith,

You need to bind the datatable to one of controls capable of rendering bound
tables (Repeater, DataList, DataGrid, GridView in 2.0). Then you have 2
ways:

1. Databind the control to the source datatable. Handle PreRender event. In
the event handler loop through the control item that represent the rows and
the cells and set their visibility as you wish.

2. Loop through the source datatable, decide what you want to show and make
another datatable of what you want to show only. Then databind the rendering
control to this another datatable.
