2 simple questions

[Joe Van Meer]

Hi,

1. Is it possible to display columns from 2 different tables in a datalist
without nesting the datalists?


2. How would I reference the data in the second table within my ItemTemplate
of my datalist?

Thx, JK

why not use as view or query and this wouldn't be an issue?
Join them...

Or I guess if you are doing the dataset purist philosophy of one table here
and one table there, then you should use the dataset relationship philosophy
to relate them.

Personally I use SQL Server stored procs and views or just queries to avoid
that situation and sometimes even do my own grid paging in code to avoid
tons of records loaded each time.

HTH some,

Shane
