Thank you very muchc for ur valuable reply... But i didnt Understand it...[:)]

For SQL-Server: select employee.name, designation.name from employee left outer join designation on designation.designation_id = employee.designation_id where employee.code = IsNull(@EmployeeCode, employee.code) and IsNull(designation.name, '') = IsNull(@DesignationName, designation.name) order by employee.name The outer join links the two tables together - even if there is no designation. The IsNull bit allows you to optionally pass in a NULL or a proper value for the employee code and the designation. Hope that helps. Andy

You can use file management classes. 1- StreamReader, used for reading 2- StreamWriter, used for writing To open a text file and showing it's content, first you need to map the file using Server.MapPath(). Give the mapped file name to StreamReader object and user ReadToEnd() method. Assign the content to a Lable/Literal control. You are almost done My Website | Ask smart questions

OK - then the answer I gave you doesn't really help, I didn't get that from what you said. To get messages to show and hide, you need to put them in a div ( a div tag does nothing by create a DIVision, it's used for grouping ) and then you'd use javascript to set the visiblity of each div when it's clicked on, something like function showMessage(messageId) { var message = document.getElementById(messageId); if (message) { message.style.display = "block"; } } function hideMessage(messageId) { var message = document.getElementById(messageId); if (message) { message.style.display = "none"; } } Of course, these could be merged into a function that toggles a message. Then, an onclick for each header, would pass through the id of the div containing it's body.

try to open viewsource and locate the id from (getElementbyid) you'll notice that its changed due to contentpage which something that asp.net do copy that id and replace it with foormal id and try it , it should work.
