| A Truly Excel-like Grid Control |
| MSDN |
| The ASP.NET DataGrid control generates an HTML output that really seems to be the Web counterpart of a Microsoft Excel worksheet. In addition, the control supports features like selection and in-place editing that can only further confirm this similarity. With in-place editing, in particular, the similarities are most clear. You click on a special type of command column and the grid redraws its content using text boxes rather than static text. At the same time, the command column changes the layout, replacing the edit link with two other links—one for saving and one for canceling changes. The overall design looks nearly identical to the Excel name box command bar. |

| Building a Full-Featured Custom DataGrid Control |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In this article, we will examine and implement these very features and demonstrate how you can build your very own Datagrid control component, one that you will be able to customize, and more importantly reuse. Based on this ability, you will then end up with one powerful control that will have many implementations, from which you could learn about creating almost any other types of custom controls. |

| Coping with a New Beta - Data Server Control Templates and Editing |
| DotNetJunkies |
| The .NET Framework Beta 2 has many changes that will break applications written in Beta 1. Among these changes is the templates used in Data Server Controls, such as the DataGrid and DataList. These are simply syntax changes in how templates are used, not programmatic breaks. In this tutorial you will learn how to use Data Server Control templates. Heck, since it’s a Friday I’ll also show you how to do DataGrid editing at the same time. The downloadable sample code for this article contains files in both Vi |

| In this example I have written a simple WebForm to manage a list of contacts which I have stored in XML. The requirements are simply the ability to add new contacts and to be able to modify or delete existing contacts. The user should be able to modify or delete multiple contacts at one time. I have also allowed the user to sort their grid by the column of their choosing. |

| Creating an ASPWire News Business Object Part 1 |
| DotNetJunkies |
| This article is part 1 of 2. In this article I will be illustrating how to use members of the System.Net namespace to create a business object that "Gets" all news headlines that ASPWire has available, parses through the return, constructs a DataSet object that holds a DataTable of all news items, and finally returns a DataView that you can bind to. We also make use of Page Caching to limit our request for the data to 3 times per day. We cannot give all the code necessary for you to run this example on you |

| Upon further thought creating a web service based on the ASPWire example in Part 1 of this article would not be that beneficial to sites like ours unless we were ASPWire. I do show the code in this article to create the web service, but it would be easier and more cost efficient to create the business object from part 1 and use that. Besides creating the web service in this article I am going to be demonstrating a better method of caching and reusing the DataSet returned by the business object from part 1. |

| Summary Rows in DataGrid Controls |
| MSDN |
| The ASP.NET DataGrid control renders a multi-column, fully templated grid, and is the most versatile and flexible of all data-bound Web controls in the .NET Framework. The DataGrid's user interface resembles, to some extent, a Microsoft Excel worksheet. Despite its rather advanced programming interface and a full set of attributes, the DataGrid simply generates an HTML table with interspersed hyperlinks to provide interactive functionality, such as sorting and pagination commands. |

| TripleASP.Net Table Editor |
| http://tripleasp.net/ |
| I recently started building some data administration pages for TripleASP.Net. Functions like adding resources, editing and moving content, will need to have specific pages/controls and methods to efficiently handle their administration. However, I quickly noticed that building a custom page/control to edit each table would be a very tedious process. In addition, some of the tables only require one or two values to be updated or tweaked every once in a while. So I decided to start exploring some of SQL Server’s system tables in an attempt to build a user control that would be capable of administering all of them, with little or no customization needed to edit each table. And the TripleASP.Net Table Editor was born. |

| Understanding Templates in ASP.NET |
| MSDN |
| Web server controls can be customized by setting properties or by using CSS styles. Some allow you to customize their look through ASP.NET templates. An ASP.NET template is a mix of HTML elements and ASP.NET controls that make up the layout for a particular area of the control. Templates are not the same as styles. Styles primarily refer to CSS stylesheets and affect graphical properties such as colors, font, border style, cell spacing, and so forth. With styles, the control's layout remains unchanged in its structure but can be modified in its appearance. In contrast, templates involve deeper changes that modify some portions of a control's user interface. |
