Hello,
I have an objectDateSource. But sometime there might not be any data
for my application. So how can I know if the objectDataSource has no
data? I binded a dropdownlist to this objectDataSource and I want to
set the dropdownlist.visible = False, if there is no data.
Thank You,

Well! If you bind your dropdownlist to your ODS and its items count property
is zero, then can't you go ahead and set its visibility to false based on
that?

The problem is there for me.
First of all I am new to asp.net as you may have noticed. And secondly
there is not such a method like:
ObjectDataSource.Items.Count
that's why I'm stuck.

Yep. I didn't say you should be checking for an Items collection property on
your ObjectDataSource. I said to check it on the dropdownlist, which does
have an Items collection.

I had already tried what you said but it hadn't worked either. But now
I got why it didnt work.
Because the dropDownList is databinded, and it doesn't contain any info
on every Page_Load it always returned 0 for list.items.count..
my fault was writing that code in page_load function.
Now I changed it to:
Protected Sub DropDownList1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal
e As System.EventArgs) Handles DropDownList1.DataBound
If DropDownList1.Items.Count.Equals(0) Then
DropDownList1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
and it works fine..
thank you anyway for your help..
