I have listed the Orders on my page with a datalist.
Now I need to append the OrderID onto the URL at this point
http://www.microsoft.com/item.asp?orderID

How do I get the OrderID out of the datalist.

Should I use a datalist or a datagrid or a datarepeater or a datadeleter or
a datatweeter or what

Hi James,

Are you working in ASP.NET 2.0? If so, you can try this.
