    Question Grid control?

    Hi,

    I am switching over from asp to asp.net. I would like to know what control I can use with web forms, that is similar to the Flexgrid control of vb?

    I have looked at the datagrid control but I will not necesarily be using data directly from the db. I will use a combination of input parameters, calculations, images, etc, that I wold like to display in a grid. This needs to be built server side.

    Any advice?

    I don't know why you couldn't use a datagrid. It doesn't have to be bound to data if you don't want it to be.

    Your other alternative are with the datalist control or the repeater control.

    I haven't read the link, but in case it's not mentioned there, you can create a dataset without connecting to the db and bind the datagrid to that dataset.
