yes, it is possible. System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl has "Enabled" property and System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlControl has "Disabled" property and those classes and page class have the child control collection. You can try to do the following: 1. you press a button 2. page reloads. and all controls are disables. 3. parent page opens the child webform using JS code 4. you close the child form and that reloads the parent page 5. parent page is reloaded and all controls are enabled. I guess it the easiest way to implement otherwise you should try to write JS code(I think that should take more time to implement)

I did something similar to this a while ago. I just updated the lines after the one that was removed with an SQL like this: UPDATE [tableName] SET line = line - 1 WHERE idKey = @idKey AND line > @removedLine Hope it helps! ;) Edbert P. Sydney, Australia.

Is this what your looking for? SELECT LG.id_lg, LG.name, SUM(LGL.type_of_hour) AS sum_of_hourtypes FROM LG AS LG JOIN LineLG AS LGL ON LGL.id_lg = LG.id_lg GROUP BY LG.id_lg, LG.name ORDER BY LG.name or this: SELECT LG.id_lg, LG.name, COUNT(LGL.type_of_hour) AS count_of_hourtypes FROM LG AS LG JOIN LineLG AS LGL ON LGL.id_lg = LG.id_lg GROUP BY LG.id_lg, LG.name ORDER BY LG.name

This is my code for Refresh data: '---------------------------- Dim myView as Dataview Dim myDS as Dataset Sub Binddata(ByVal SortExpression As String) myView = New DataView(myDs.Tables(0)) myView.Sort = SortExpression Me.myDataGrid.DataSource = myView Me.myDataGrid.DataBind() End Sub Public Sub myDataGrid_PageChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataGridPageChangedEventArgs) MyDataGrid.CurrentPageIndex = e.NewPageIndex 'choice field to filter Dim field_filter as string="CustomerID" Binddata(field_filter) End Sub '------------ In HTML page '--------- Hope everything in the garden is lovely.;P

See the following link. It is for ASP, but the reason seems very logical, even in ASP.NET. http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=214#a3[^] -- LuisR Luis Alonso Ramos Intelectix - Chihuahua, Mexico Not much here: My CP Blog!

You're going to have to code this from scratch or try and find a 3rd partyy DataGrid component that will allow you to do this. Excel will not export it's functionality to a datagrid, it only works with an Excel worksheet. Basically, you're going to have to provide the user interface, drop down boxes to allow selections of the filters, and provide code to handle the filtering of data (using DataView objects) and binding the datagrid to the new dataviews you create.
