> how can I set my DataList so that the HeaderItem is not displayed if
the list is empty?
You have to code this manually. I tend to do something like this:
_dataList.DataSource = ds;
_dataList.DataBind();
if (_dataList.Items.Count == 0)
{
_dataList.Visible = false;
_myInfoLabel.Text = "No Records Found";
}
