Five New Data Tutorials

My Working with Data in ASP.NET 2.0 tutorial series has been updated to include five new tutorials: one on working with custom Button actions and four on displaying data with the DataList and Repeater controls!

The four tutorials on the DataList and Repeater begin the second phase of the tutorial series, turning attention from the GridView, DetailsView, and FormView controls to the DataList and Repeater controls. Over the course of the four new ones and 14 remaining tutorials yet to be published, we'll look at how to do edits and deletes, paging and sorting, and utilize custom Button actions with the DataList and Repeater controls.

Also, a word of thanks to the many people who've read the tutorials. I've been getting about a dozen emails a day from folks with questions, pointing out typos, comments, and so on, and have tried my best to respond as quickly as possible (although some replies have taken several days - sorry!).

Enjoy!

Scott, I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful resource the Data Tutorials are. I have been working through them and found them to be extremely useful. I have been applying them to my current project and have been very impressed that they have addressed all of the “real world” scenarios I have needed.

The latest instalment including the addition of buttons to a GridView was very timely as that was exactly what I needed to do in my Project. It was great that you included the note at the end about the use of Template Fields and the Command Argument as that was how I implemented it.

There are a couple of other people in my team using them so it has been good to get us doing things in a common way and be able to bounce questions off each other.

So overall I can recommend them to anyone wanting to find a better way to use ASP.NET 2.

Many, many thanks, Norman, Telecom New Zealand
