Filtering data in DataGrid and DataList

I have a xml file for datasource.e.g
<Persons>
<Person>
<Name>User1</Name>
<State>NJ</State>
</Person>
<Person>
<Name>User2</Name>
<State>WA</State>
</Person>
</Persons>

I have a dropdown list which I select a state from list.
Is such property or event in Datalist or DataGrid that
when I select e.g NJ as a state I would only display
<Person> data for just that state (Filter out).

Thank you in advance.

In onselectchanged of dropdowlist you can write a code to filter your
datasource of datalist or datagrid corresponding to the selected item in
dropdownlist and then bind it to the datalist or datagrid . In ASP.NET 1.1
there is not direct way for doing this, but in ASP.NET 2.0 this is going to
be very simple. Wait and watch.

Interested in more .NET stuff visit www.dedicatedsolutions.co.uk The DataList is not as powerful as the DataGrid. It requires more work from you since it has no default data presentation format. However, the DataGrid begins to get very cumbersome as the number of columns of data you present increases. Anything more than half a dozen columns or so and you probably induce horizontal scrolling - a real no-no for me. If you put such a...

If a row of data in a dataset has a lot of columns the row displaying the data in a datagrid will run way off the screen. What I'd like to do is display a row of data over several datagrid rows so the user doesn't have to scroll horizontally. Essentially, I want to wrap a datagrid row (not text in individual columns) with as much control as possible. Make sense? While this seems simple enough on the surface, I can't figure out how to do...

Hello, Does anyone have an idea on how I can filter the data in the gridview control that was returned by an sql query? I have a gridview that works fine when I populate it with data. Now I want to look at that data and filter it based on what is in it. I know that this could have been done with data sets and data views in asp.net 1.1 but how is this done now in asp.net 2.0?

I've been searching all over and think I am close, but keep getting the error "Index out of range" when trying to reference a nested datagrid when an OnEditCommand event is raised. When the OnEditCommand event is raised, I try to do the following: 1. Find the selected datalist item in which the nested datagrid raised the event.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
