Joe,
PreRender is good for formatting the items, calculating totals. You can loop
through the whole collection of items as opposed to the ItemDataBound event
that handles an item at the time.
In the Unload event the items are already gone to the client.

Hello All:
I have been bitten a few times lately as I've tried to implement
functionality in the Page_PreRender event.
So here is my question: for what purpose do you use the PreRender event?
How do you decide whe to use the PreRender event vs the Unload event?
Any respnse will be welcome.
TIA,
