New to Dot Net Quick question

[Josh]

I would like to create a page simalar to this one:



http://www.cdms.net/manuf/mprod.asp?mp=11&lc=0&ms=3691&manuf=11



Can I use a grid view control and store my data in a MySQL database? Or do
you recommend another control? I have a lot of information and need to
update it frequently and want the list sorted alphabetically.



TIA

Josh

Can I use a grid view control and store my data in a MySQL database?

Yes. You can fill standard DataSet, DataTable & DateReader objects from
MySQL just fine. The GridView control isn't bound to any particular
database type.

I have a lot of information and need to update it frequently and want the
list sorted alphabetically.

Just include an "order by" parameter in your query.

Hi,

You can store data in gridview, and you can also apply sorting and
paging easily with it. For sorting use dataview with gridview.

Any suggestion on sites containing information on either of these controlls?
