DataGrid binding to an arraylist of items object

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is a way to bind to datagrid or a gridview the
items in an arraylist. These items all have vars such as price,
qty..etc? (besides putting in a datagrid or datatable first).

ex.
ArrayList alShoppingCart = shoppingCart.Ge tCurrentItems;
alShoppingCart contains an array list of Item objects.

Thanks
Maz.

You can bind a datagrid of gridview to any collection. You then set the
DataSource attribute of the datacrdi or gridview to the arraylist.
Look at this very good example:

I have got an event below to remove items from an arraylist and then to rebind the arraylist to the datagrid subsequently deleting the appropriate row.

Was thinking it might have something to do with my page load/ postback but not really sure. Can someone please...

Hello, I am thinking of a general solution to the specific issue and I hope someone has some more experience on that. Up to now I use the ListView as the primary control for collections of items. Unfortunately, the ListView behaves sluggishly with large amounts of data. That's why I think of using DataGrid instead. The DataGrid in my application should be databinded to a memory

Hey, I Tried to bind a DataGrid to an ArrayList, and had 2 problems: 1. The DataGrid shows the Length property of the items instead of their text - how can I change that? 2. After binding, I add new elements to the ArrayList but the DataGrid doesnt refresh's it's view - I have to set the DataSource property of the DataGrid to null and then re bind it to the ArrayList! Isnt there a "pretier" way? Thanks ahead

Hello, I'm trying to use an ArrayList to do data binding, but am getting an error I don't understand. I posted this in another thread, but that was all confused with various other problems, which could be why no-one answered it!! I've now narrowed the problem down, so am starting a new, more specific, thread. Sorry it's a bit long, but it's reasonably simple stuff.
