dummy data

Rajeshwar Code Developer

hai every body !!! i got a small doubt . how can i insert dummy data into gridview manually not bind from database.

try and try untill reach success..

With code. Why do you want to do that ? Any collection is a valid data source for a grid view.

Your best bet is to put dummy data in your DB, so you can show him the actual working code, not write code just for the sake of showing him a demo

Then create a struct, and a list of that struct, and bind to that

Create DataTable with rows and Column in code behind. then Bind it to GridView.

I would've used an xml doc. Not because it's better than your solution, but just because it's the way I think. ' mypath is derived from something like Server.MapPath("App_Data\XMLFile1.xml")

Public Function GetXMLTable(ByVal mypath As String) As DataTable

    Dim myDS As DataSet = New DataSet()
    Try
        myDS.ReadXml(mypath)

    Catch ex As Exception
        dim exc as Exception = new Exception("Cannot read file " + mypath + " in GetXMLTable. " + ex.Message)  
        Throw exc
    End Try

    Return myDS.Tables(0)

End Function
