Hi everyone,

I have a datagrid question again. I have to insert some datagrids in the page at run time.

I generate my DataSet and bind it to my datagrid and add it as:

datagrid.DataSource = testData.Tables[0];
datagrid.DataBind();
Page.Controls.Add(datagrid);

everything works fine, except the datagrid appears at top of table. Is there a way to have it at the bottom of the page lke after the longest control.

Thanks for any help you might give me.

Sincerely,

Pankaj

Put a PlaceHolder control in your form where you want the datagrid to go, then you can just add the grid to the placeholder.controls collection.

Hi there!

Thanks for the reply. i tried it out. However, I cannot move the place holder other than the top left of my web form. Is that normal??! I would olike the grid to appear on the bottom of the page.

Thanks,
Pankaj

Did you put the placeholder in the ASPX of your form or did you add that programmatically as well? Any time you add controls programmatically to page.controls they will end up in one of two places: the beginning or the end of the form, before or after (repectively) all the other controls in the form. If you place a <asp:placeholder> in your form's html code where you want the dynamic grid to show up, then the grib will appear there.

Hi,

I used the design mode and added the placeholder in design view. However, I put it in a panel and it worked fine. Weird...

Thanks again,
