Hello,

I have the following question about an editable datagrid:

Normally, you have one editable row in your datagrid.  But what I need is 
a grid (filled with data from a database) where all rows are in edit mode 
at the same time, so that the user can edit all the rows at once (like you 
are editing data in Excel, for example).

I don't think this is possible with the default asp.net datagrid.  If not, 
are there other third-party datagrid controls where this is possable?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

When you use ADO.NET and SQL to perform a select of desired rows in a table
using a DataAdapter and set the datasource on the datagrid to that
collection you have access to all the rows and columns.  Of course you can
configure the datagrid to give access to only certain fields or rows.  When
you perform an update on the data the original data source is updated.

add template columns to make edits and rather than providing a button for
updating each row...make a button which updates the  all changed rows
depending upon the version like datarowversion.current or changed..
