Table Editing Tool

[Tina]

Does anyone know of an asp.net general purpose table editing tool that will
allow users to add modify and delete data?

Thanks,
T

"general purpose" editing tool" is different than a "table editing tool".
Tables are specific things in HTML. So a "general purpose table editing
tool" is a sort of oxymoron. That's probably why nobody's responding yet.

Do you just mean that you want to enable users to edit text? Regardless,
that's the closest you're going to get.

Here's one I use that's pretty good (it's not free but is full-featured):

You can enable and disable all of the buttons and insert/program your own
buttons - thereby restricting what users can do (perhaps to manipulating
HTML tables if that's what you're after), as well as adding features not
already supported by the editor.

There are free ones as well.
You can google "dhtml text editor" and you'll get a variety to choose from.

-HTH

Sorry, I meant a SQL Server table.

To modify and delete data? MS Access is the closest thing you'll find to any
"general purpose" tool.

But it's generally considered bad practice for many good reasons to use MS
Access as the front end to a SQL Server database and table.

The best thing you can do here is be much more specific about what you are
trying to accomplish and why. Maybe there is better advice we can give. You
posted this question in an ASP.NET news group. Presumably you are working
with a Web application and not a desktop application.
