DataGrid with Edit and Delete

[multiplex77]

Hi,

I'm an ASP programmer, now learning the ropes with .NET. I'm trying to create a DataGrid with an "Edit" button and a "Delete" checkbox at the end of each row, like this:

<tr>
<TD>record1_col1</TD>
<TD>record1_col2</TD>
<TD><a href=&quot;edit.asp?id=1&quot;><img src=&quot;images/edit.jpg&quot;></a>
</TD>
<TD><input type=checkbox name=chkDelete value=&quot;1&quot;></TD>
</TR>

My intention for Edit is to edit the record in another webform.

My intention of Delete is to be able to check the checkboxes of the records I want to delete, and click a &quot;Delete&quot; button at the bottom of the form.

1. Does DataGrid provide such form of customization? Also, how can I make the Edit and Delete appear on the RIGHTmost column of the row. The DataGrid default is to have it appear on the left column.

2. Also, how can I place the ID of the record (fr the database) appear within the form objects of the row,
e.g.,
<input type=checkbox value=&quot;<%= objRS(&quot;ID&quot %>&quot; name=chkDelete>

Thanks very much for the help.

Take a look at the DataGrid samples in your .Net Framework QuickStarts. DataGrid1 through DataGrid18 samples demonstrate how to use different methods & properties of DataGrid control, including the ones you need.
