dynamic sql in datasource

Hi there! newbie here. I've literally only started a week ago using asp in the form of VWD express so pardon and stupidity on my behalf. Ok so here goes

From what I've learn so far its possible to connect a gridview control to a datasource, write a query in the datasource and when the page loads voila! The results are in the grid

however, i need the sql that is stored in the datasource to change dynamically. Is there anyway I can load my dynamic sql into a single datasouce and have the results displayed in a gridview?

Thanks in advance

yes, you could.

after you set up the sqlconnection object and gridview on you page...

you could dynamicaly replace the select command by

SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = "your new select command"; // update your select statement

Gridview1.Databind(); //to update Gridview.
