Navigating Your DataSet with ASP.NET and Web Forms

You've created your new ASP.NET web application. You have your .NET DataGrid on the page. Your DataGrid is being populated with data via your DataSet. Now what? Maybe you want to navigate your DataSet from one row to the next. Maybe you want to jump from row 1 to row 101. Perhaps you want to do this and also be able to update your textboxes, labels, and other objects on your web page at the same time, to give your users a richer and more friendly way to view and edit data.

In this article, Paul Gorman shows you how to do all this and more. He demonstrates how to make a connection to a database, get your data into a DataSet, and bind your DataGrid, textboxes, labels, etc. to that DataSet. Gorman also explores navigating from one row to the next while adding, editing, and deleting along the way.
