Hi Guffa, Thanks for taking ur time to reply. Since panel is a asp control, IE used document.all to retreive the id. Crazy syntax. This has been done to differentiate between asp control and html control code

if you are pulling the data from database, try to do the date formating in sql server like CONVERT(VARCHAR,column name,101)

Store the manipulated data in another dataset and then transfer that data alone.

following these steps http://www.iis.net/default.aspx?tabid=2&subtabid=25&i=993 opening it as administrator solved the problem

I have installed vs.net 2002 in vista. I have given the required NTFS permission for wwwroot. I am still getting access denied error. logfiles gives me the error number as 404. When I open vs 2002, it shows a warning that vs 2002 has known compatability problems. First Can this problem be fixed? if so how? Please help.. i have tried all the solutions in http://www.kbalertz.com/kbNamed\_930903/Fixes.problem.that.occurs.when.visit.page.Windows.aspx
