Alex,

A datalist works with templates only. A datagrid can have bound columns,
columns with buttons etc. It can be easier to start with in the beginning,
when you don't have html and javascript skills, since you don't need to
prepare any templates. Datagrid also offers you have sorting and paging
features. It suits well for typical database-related tasks. You can use
templates in datagrid too.

Datalist is the only control that lets you arrange items horizontally.

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. (by calling getDataGridReference and returning the DataList's selectedIndex)
