"Templates allow for customization of a Web control's rendered output by
providing a means for a page developer to specify HTML elements, Web
controls, and databound statements."
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...srvrcntrls.asp
For example, if the standard display of automatically generated columns on a
datagrid-bound to a datasource does not meet the requirements of your
project, you can use Templates to define a different display (by adding
dropdownlists, checkboxes, etc. instead of the default labels and textboxes)
for the rows on the datagrid.
