Eval function

[Zeba]

Hi,

Can you tell me how does the Eval function know where to find EventID
in the following code ?

Also, isn't this Eval function same as the DataBinder.Eval ? But MSDN
only shows Eval() to be overloaded with 2 / 3 parameters. Also why
dont we have to write DataBinder.Eval in full ( I have only included
the name space System.Web.UI in the code-behind)

Code is given below :

<asp:DataList ID="DataList1" runat="server" DataKeyField="E ventID"
DataSourceID="m ySqlDataSource" >
<ItemTemplate >
EventID:
<asp:Label ID="EventIDLabe l" runat="server" Text='<%#
Eval("EventID") %>'></asp:Label><br />
<br />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>
<asp:SqlDataSou rce ID="mySqlDataSo urce" runat="server"
ConnectionStrin g="<%$
ConnectionStrin gs:myAuctionEve ntsConnectionSt ring %>"
SelectCommand=" SELECT * FROM [AuctionEventsDB]"></
asp:SqlDataSour ce>

The web.config has the following entry :
<connectionStri ngs>
<add name="myAuction EventsConnectio nString" connectionStrin g="Data
Source=.\SQLEXP RESS;AttachDbFi lename=&quot;C: \myPath
\AuctionEvents. mdf&quot;;Integ rated Security=True;C onnect
Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
providerName="S ystem.Data.SqlC lient" />
</connectionStrin gs>
Thanks !
