one to many relationships

[Guest]

hey all,
i have a dataset that has a customers tableadapter and an orders
tableadapter. i have a webform that has a dropdownlist bound to the customers
and and formview bound to the orders.

when i click Add the button for the formview on a respective customer the
insert template shows a writable textbox for the customer id. how do i make
that a read-only showing the dropdownlist's currently selected customer id?
seems like this should be an automatic thing.

thanks,
rodchar

What exactly are you asking? Normally you just write the label of the
data in the column and only show the DropDownList in edit mode.
