HELP??? DataGrid

Tim::..

Hi...

Can someone please tell me how I get the following values from the datatable
below into a datagrid??? I want to use template columns so I can minipulate
the data but don't know how to get the values into the templated columns...

I tried...

Container.DataI tem, "givenName"

but get the following error...

Compiler Error Message: BC30519: Overload resolution failed because no
accessible 'ToString' can be called without a narrowing conversion:

Source Error:

Line 39: <asp:TemplateCo lumn HeaderText="">
Line 40: <ItemTemplate >
Line 41: <asp:HyperLin k Runat =server NavigateUrl ='<%#Container. DataItem,
"givenName" %>' ID="urlImage">
Line 42: <img src="../images/user.gif" border="0">
Line 43: </asp:HyperLink>
Thanks for any help!

....CODE...
For Each res As SearchResult In src.FindAll
Dim dr As DataRow = ds.Tables("cont acts").NewRow
dr(" ") = "<img src='../images/user.gif'>"

If res.Properties. Contains("sn") And
res.Properties. Contains("given Name") And res.Properties. Contains("Initi als")
Then
dr("Name") = CStr(res.Proper ties("givenName ")(0)) & ", " &
CStr(res.Proper ties("sn")(0)) & " " & CStr(res.Proper ties("Initials" )(0))
Else
dr("Name") = ""
End If

If res.Properties. Contains("physi calDeliveryOffi ceName") Then
dr("Dept.") =
CStr(res.Proper ties("physicalD eliveryOfficeNa me")(0))
Else
dr("Dept.") = ""
End If

If res.Properties. Contains("telep honeNumber") Then
Dim TeleNumber As String =
CStr(res.Proper ties("telephone Number")(0))
dr("Ext") = "#" & Right(TeleNumbe r, Len(TeleNumber) -
InStr(TeleNumbe r, "1"))
Else
dr("Ext") = ""
End If

If res.Properties. Contains("mail" ) Then
dr("Email") = CStr(res.Proper ties("mail")(0) )
Else
dr("Email") = ""

Hi Tim,

You can use HyperLinkColumn like follows

<asp:HyperLinkC olumn HeaderText="Giv en Name"
DataNavigateUrl Field="givenNam e"
DataNavigateUrl FormatString="m yUrl.aspx?id={0 }" Text="<img
src='../images/user.gif' border='0'>" Target="_blank" >
<img src="../images/user.gif" border="0">
</asp:HyperLinkCo lumn>
