Hi
This is the second time i am posting the same topic because i didnt get the reply last time.
I have an application where i have to retrieve the user details and display in the form of labels as address.I have to retrieve 3-4 fields from the database and have to display the address in the form of label. There are 6000 to 8000 records in the database,so I have to display no. of records pagewise to take the print out of the labels.

Can anyone help this time.

Thanks and regards
Lily

And what exactly are you having problems with? Choosing the right data repeating control, or setting up paging?

It would really help if you provide more details; explain your requirements, explain what you have already investigated, what works and what doesn't etc. That way, other people don't have to do all the hard work by trying to figure out what you possible mean.

Anyway, what you probably want is an asp:DataList in combination with Paging. Search Google for DataList Paging and you'll find a lot of useful information.

Cheers,

Imar

Hi
I may be wrong in explaining that u didnt get my requirement.
Actually i have to retrieve from database and display in the forum of labels,for example:
Name Name Name
Address Address Address
Pin Code Pin Code Address


In this form I have to display and I have to give the option for taking printout of these addresses. Code can be in ASP or C#.
I have to generate the label and I can take the print out of these records pagewise.

Aha, I see.

I don't have any experience with printing labels from ASP.NET, and personally, I don't think it's the right tool for the job.

You'll run into a lot of browser peculiarities, like a header and footer text, unwanted page breaks, etc.

Do you have to use ASP.NET for this?

If you want to print labels you have two options:

1. use Crystal that comes with Visual Studo
2. dump data to pdf

I have used crystal for this requirement.

Hi

I can use ASP.Net or ASP for generating labels.
How to do using Crystal Report??

Here's how you would use crystal with your web app:

Creating Reports using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET

Let us know how it goes.

BTW, I didn't receive a notice that you replied to this post. I happened to check on it today. Strange.

Hi lily611
What I make out is that ur main problem is genration of lables at run time..
So Instead of genrating lables why dont you create a html table at the run time with number of rows according to rows in your datatable..
But Still u have to solve the printing problem..
For that i can suggest u to open a seprate browser win and display the table there and get the print from there....
Hope it helps

Thanks and Regards
