This worked. Thank you!

MVC is still part of ASP.NET. I'd prefer to keep them together for the moment. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP

These are great. Thanks!

No, looks good thanks.

It uses an xml file for its sql quiries and log4net for logging. I am thinking the datagrid can't handle so many records on a postback. Maybe, if I were to provide paging to the datagrid. It may not even be the datagrid.

Well surely you will use two event handlers. But if I remember I did face this problem in past, datagrid was firing the itemcommand on sort so I put a check on top in itemcommand event handler if e.commandname <> 'sort' and it worked fine. put a break point on sort and itemcommand event handlers and you will see that sort command is also going to itemcommand event handler. -----

Thanks. I looked through them. I see you can purchase or get free message boards. Now, I am wondering if .NET comes with an API for making message boards, so I can customize on my own.
