    He is wasting your time.

    Can you use a MsFlexGrid rather than a DataGrid?

    Ok, here's how to programatically select (highlight) the first item in datalist:
    DataList1.SetFocus
    SendKeys "{up}", True

    To display the selection:
    Text1.Text = DataList1.BoundText
    VB 6.0, Access, Sql server, Asp

    VB Code:
    1. lstsummat.itemdata(0).selected=true
