Open Connection Data...

[servlan]

Dear all,

I have a webpage that fetches information from a AREA map image html function. The map coordinates and text is contained in a seperate file (ie file.map).

I would however like this information to come from either an Excel file or SQL db. I have used datagrids before, but I think somehow what I need is a little different!

Please help

Thanks
Paul.

use the repeater control, it can give you more control over the structure your data takes. You can also do it old asp stile where you write a loop to go through the data set.

Do you have any links for the repeater function?
