Subtotals in Gridview

[=?Utf-8?B?SHV0dHk=?=]

I have searched the net but have been unable to find a solution to
subtotaling in a gridview. I have a gridview that is bounded to sqldatasource
where I would like to subtotal rows throughout the gridview based on column
value "Type". I am using VB.NET. Thanks.

The way to do this sort of things is to use a repeater or a listview with
ItemTemplate made out of two html table rows. The first <trwill be used as
a regular row. The second <trwill contain subtotals. It will be hidden for
all items (rows) but the last item for each Type. You will need to handle
either ItemDataBound or PreRender event to calculate the subtotals, detect
the last item for every Type and show the subtotal <trfor the detected
last items.

I failed to mention I am using a nested gridview in application. The second
gridview shows the details of the master gridview where I want to display
totals. My goal is to show hierarchial data with subtotals at major
intervals. Will the repeater accomplish this task? Thanks.
