Hello,

the roles.aspx can't be viewed by vs.net designer. when I try to view it. I got a message "Couldn't Open in design view. Quote values differently inside a '<%..."Value" ...%> block."
what's this?
Thanks

You made a mistake with your quotes, just like it says. Or else you made another mistake related to a data binding expression.

Marenela,
I had the same problem. You have to replace the outer double quotes with single quotes:
<a href='EditRole.aspx?RoleID=<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "RoleID") %>'>

Thanks Nigel I got it.

That shouldn't be necessary, but it's great if it fixes your problem.

Anything inside the data-binding brackets, <% %>, is only seen on the server, and the result is sent to the browser. It's not an error to use quotes like this:

<a href="EditRole.aspx?RoleID=<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "RoleID") %>">
