SA Developer .NET

Hi all,

I use a DataSet.Table[0], which is populated from the database, as the datasource for my datagrid.

After I databind to the grid and display it on the web page, I want to edit some cells in the grid, and then click a button to update the grid, save the changes to the database, and show the CHANGED datagrid again.

How is this done?

Thanx.

it can be many ways to achive the above requirment.

 as you said u need to edit some of the cells(column) in the girdview.. 

1. You need to convert those bound column to template columns & define the edit template

2. Add the Edit Button Column

3. In RowEditing Event .. change the gridview editindex to e.neweditindex

4. In RowUpdating Event get new values & update the database.

5. Bind the gridview again

Hope it helps

Thanx.

I haven't tried the dataVIEW, but the dataGRID. I'll check it out -

[maybe I'm a bit confused between the two...haha...:-)]

On paper your suggestion makes sense, so I'll surely try it out today.

Maybe you were a bit confused; it's a GRIDview vs. dataGRID, not a dataVIEW.

Both will give you a pretty decent idea of what to do.
