I have data coming from an SQL DB - Full_Name, Email, and Website.  
Retrieving the data is no problem as well as displaying the data.  
However, I want to format the data (in a table), so a user can click on 
Email and be able to send a message or Website and go to that website.  
All of the examples I have been able to locate like NavigateURL, show one 
having to go to another page...not what I want to do...Ideas are most 
welcomed!
Thanks.

Use something like:

<asp:Repeater runat="server" id="listEmails">
  <ItemTemplate>
    <a href="mailto:<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Email")
%>">
      Email <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Full_Name") %>
    </a><br />
  </ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

in your code, simply DataBind the appropriate database results to
listEmails.DataSource.

Happy Programming!
