First of all there is no datagridview in asp.net ,its called Gridview.
The DataList control is used to display a repeated list of items that are bound to the control. However, the DataList control adds a table around the data items by default.
Ex:-
Default.aspx code
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %>
Default.aspx.vb code
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data
Partial Class _Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Dim strConnString As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings.Item("ConnectionString").ToString()
Dim con As New SqlConnection(strConnString)
Dim com As SqlCommand
Dim str As String
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
If Not IsPostBack Then
con.Open()
Str = "select * from student"
com = New SqlCommand(Str, con)
Dim reader As SqlDataReader
reader = com.ExecuteReader
DataList1.DataSource = reader
DataList1.DataBind()
reader.Close()
con.Close()
End If
End Sub
End Class
Gridview:- Displays the values of a data source in a table where each column represents a field and each row represents a record. The GridView control enables you to select, sort, and edit these items
Ex:-
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>
using System;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
string connStr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
SqlCommand com;
SqlDataAdapter sqlda;
DataSet ds;
string str;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
BindGrid();
}
}
void BindGrid()
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connStr);
con.Open();
str = "select * from student";
com = new SqlCommand(str, con);
sqlda = new SqlDataAdapter(com);
con.Close();
ds = new DataSet();
sqlda.Fill(ds, "student");
GridView1.DataSource = ds;
GridView1.DataMember = "student";
GridView1.DataBind();
}
protected void GridView1_PageIndexChanging(object sender, GridViewPageEventArgs e)
{
GridView1.PageIndex = e.NewPageIndex;
BindGrid();
}
}
Thanks
