Moving datalistitems

I want to be able to allow my users to move DataListItems up and down
without going back to the database. I assumed that your DataListItems were
only pointers ( I am probably wrong here) and would be able to move the
pointers around, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I tried this:

Dim oItem as DataListItem
oItem = oList.Items(1)
oList.Items(1) = oList.Items(2)
oList.Items(2) = oItem

which works until you get the 3rd line which gives you an error:

Compiler Error Message: BC30526: Property 'Item' is 'ReadOnly'.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Tom

I am trying to hide all my datalistitems, which contain labels, textboxes a datagrid, etc. I want to show each datalist item one at a time on the page as the user pages through it. I tried: for each oItem as DataListItem in DataList1.Items oItem.Visible = false And that doesn't seem to work.

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