VB.Net Datagrid

Is there a way to bind a datagrid in VB.Net to an ADODB Recordset object? I
have tried:

rs.Open ("SELECT Name FROM tblStaff",conne ction)

dgTest.SetDataB indings(rs,"")

The recordset is filled but it returns an error at the datagrid
databinding.

TIA :-)

The documentation of the Datagrid.dataso urce property lists the variety of
supported data sources.

I have read some of it and from this know that it can be bound to an ADODB
recordset. However, it is the second parameter that is causing the error.
The documentation says that the default is an empty string but it fails. I
have also tried putting the table name in there but that generates an error
saying that a Child record cannot be crteated for the table. What should be
put into the second parameter?

Data source must implement the 'IEnumerable' interface
like DataTable, DataView, ArrayList, Hashtable but not
the Recordset. First fill DataTable from Recordset and
then bind DataTable to DataGrid.

Try this code:
Dim custDA As New OleDbDataAdapte r
Dim dtTerritories As New DataTable
Dim Conn As New ADODB.Connectio n
Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim dgTest as New dataSet

Conn.Open("<-----Use Connection String------
";", "", "", -1) RS.Open("SELECT Name FROM tblStaff", Conn,
ADODB.CursorTyp eEnum.adOpenFor wardOnly,
ADODB.LockTypeE num.adLockReadO nly, 1)

custDA.Fill(dtT erritories, RS)
RS.Close()
Conn.Close()
RS = null
Conn = null
dgTest.DataSour ce = dtTerritories
dgTest.DataBind ()

Also, you make like to Reference traditional DataGrid of
VB 6.0 in Windows Form application. Traditional DataGrid
of VB 6.0 may not work in web application.

Allen,

You can using the dataadapter make a dataset from a recordset.

I is
datadapter.fill (dataset,record set,"mytable")

However it has less sence because it is only usable for filling the grid,
not for writing back to the recordset.

When you are able to that take the ADONET approach, which is much easier by
the way too.

Thanks for that. I will give it a whirl when I get to work :-)

Hi All I have been trying to add a control to the header cell of a datagrid on my ASP.NET page. These controls are defined in the HTML as ASP.NET web controls. They are being added into the header of the datagrid in the "ItemDataBound" method of the grid. However, once, they are added in the grid, i seem to lose the event handler for the same control. Is there anyone who has tried this before and knows why this is hapenning ??
