Is having multiple gridviews and formviews on a single page a good practice?

[dan]

Hi,

I think I need a gridview, formview, another gridview, and another formview
on a single page. There is a parent-child relationship between the first
gridview and the formview and then between second gridview and the second
formview. There is also a parent-child relationship between the first
formview and the second gridview.

Does the above look like a good practice in asp.net?

I will welcome any suggestions.
Thanks,
Dan

There's certainly no *technical* reason why you can't have more than one
GridView and/or FormView on the same page...

Whether that's "good practice" or not is impossible to say without knowing
how the page actually works / looks...

Does it work?
Is it efficient?
Does it look good / well designed?
Have any of your users complained?
