Question
In vb6 it was easy to place a grid on a form, a datacontrol and link them with a database...in vb.net...how do i place a grid on a page and manage it seeing there is not datacontrol available. Would you have a code sample that would help me...kind regards

Answer
You need to use "Data Adapter" for this. From the ToolBox you need to select an appropriate DataAdapter and configure it according to your needs. It is more reliable now. However the details cannot be covered here.
