Exporting to Access using ASP.NET

Does anyone know how to export a data grid from asp.net into microsoft
access? Thanks.

Well, I don't know if this would help but a datagrid is usually bound to a dataset. So, then values in a dataset can be saved to xml. Then, importing xml data in MS Access may be one way. I have not done any research on this so I am just giving you some ideas. Otherwise, you might have to tamper with the Access object model to loop through the values in the datagrid and write them to an access table. Hope this points you in the right direction. I will be looking out for any other suggestions as well.

You're definitely on the right track. A DataGrid is a server-side component
that DISPLAYS data on the client-side. Therefore, you can't export data from
it. You CAN, however, do one or more INSERTs from the data that is on the
server-side (which the DataGrid is bound to), either in a DataTable or
DataSet. However, it's not necessary to save the data to XML; this would be
an additional unnecessary manipulation of the data.

Data isn't "exported" en masse. It is inserted one row at a time, regardless
of how it may seem to a user. Just loop through the rows and do INSERTs on
each one.

Did I say loop throught the datagrid? Yes I did. I should have known better i meant to say dataset or loop throught the items within each datatable. Yes, I do agree saving the data as xml would be a extra unessary step
