Nested repeater control and custom dataset

[mahivr]

hi

im using nested repeater control in asp.net page.
two control names are:
1. packg -outer repeater
2. rptr - inner repeater


now the datasource for packg (outer control) is comming from database
and the datasourcer for rptr (inner control) is my own datatable.

how to bind this in my page.



'----------coding im using in ItemDataBound of outer repater control----

Private Sub packg_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.RepeaterItemEventArgs) Handles packg.ItemDataBound
If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item OrElse e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
Dim rpt As Repeater = CType(e.Item.FindControl("rptr"), Repeater)
If Not (rpt Is Nothing) Then
Dim WsI As Integer
Dim WsCart As New DataTable()
WsCart.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("tempcol", GetType(String)))
WsCart.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("DivId", GetType(String)))
For WsI = 1 To 3
Dim WsRow As DataRow = WsCart.NewRow
WsRow("tempcol") = "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtTitl," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtLstNm," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtfstNm," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_lstadt"
WsRow("Divid") = "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_"
wsDetStr = wsDetStr & "::" & WsRow("DivId")
WsCart.Rows.Add(WsRow)
Next


rptr.DataSource = '---here i want to bind the second repeater
rptr.DataBind()
End If
End If
End Sub

Have you tried...

Private Sub packg_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.RepeaterItemEventArgs) Handles packg.ItemDataBound
If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item OrElse e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
Dim rpt As Repeater = CType(e.Item.FindControl("rptr"), Repeater)
If Not (rpt Is Nothing) Then
Dim WsI As Integer
Dim WsCart As New DataTable()
WsCart.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("tempcol", GetType(String)))
WsCart.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("DivId", GetType(String)))
For WsI = 1 To 3
Dim WsRow As DataRow = WsCart.NewRow
WsRow("tempcol") = "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtTitl," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtLstNm," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_txtfstNm," & "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_lstadt"
WsRow("Divid") = "rptr__ctl" & WsI & "_"
wsDetStr = wsDetStr & "::" & WsRow("DivId")
WsCart.Rows.Add(WsRow)
Next
 
 
[b]rptr.DataSource = WsCart[/b]
rptr.DataBind()
End If
End If
End Sub
