details view , but still come up with same result , i am using visual studio vb and asp.net thanks ! hope i have enough information supplied
its visual studio 2010 thanks
How are you binding the data to the gridview?
Thanks a lot for your interest !
i got placed an sqldatasource control , placed it on the webform ,then configured it through the wizard , then placed a gridview on the form , then , i set the datasource property of the gridview to the sqldatasource
Thanks in advance !
Are you getting results from the sqldatasource or is it coming up empty? When you use the wizard what happens when you click the “Test Query” button?
Everything seems to be in order but I’ve not used webforms or sqldatasource for a few years. Hmm. Did you set the columns manually or are you using AutoGenerateColumns=“True”? Either way it shouldn’t matter. I’ve taken your steps above and I’ve got a functional gridview. If I make it so that no records are returned by using a non-existing value in a WHERE statement I also get an empty screen. My guess is that your not returning anything from the database.
thankx for your replies ! , ive tried it out with with both an empty and non empty table , my major challenge is that the gridview displays very well in the design mode , but once i hit the run button , and the webpage is in the run mode , the page displays all other controlls but the gridview
