datagrid errors

[Kevin]

What is the correct way to check for this inside a grid?

<% If Container.DataItem("from_fly_from") <> "" then %>

I want to only display info in a grid if it exists... is this possible?

Kevin, the easiest way is to probably use a TemplateColumn with a "helper
function". I discuss how to do this at
http://datawebcontrols.com/faqs/CustomizingAppearance/ConditionalFormatting.shtml,
as well as in my book, ASP.NET Data Web Controls Kick Start.

Happy Programming!
