I have a dataset with 2 fields in it. ID and Name. I want the Name field to have Id - Name and the ID field just to have ID.<BR><BR>Is there a way to do this? This would have been really simple in asp.<BR><BR>Matti'm assuming ur using a datagrid in which case u could easily do this utilizing the TemplateColumn like so...<BR><BR><asp
ataGrid .....><BR> <Columns><BR> <asp:BoundColumn DataField="ID" HeaderText="ID" runat="server" /><BR> <asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Name" runat="server" /><BR> <ItemTemplate><BR> <%# Container.DataItem("ID") & " - " & Container.DataItem("Name") %><BR> </ItemTemplate><BR> </asp:TemplateColumn><BR> </Columns><BR></aspataGrid><BR><BR><BR>hope this helps,<BR>n1ckPYeah I can do that but I need to be able to do it at a dataset level because I am not using a datagrid and I am using a 3rd part component that requires these 2 fields. So what I would like to show the user the id as well as the name but...only way that is gonna happen is if I can get it in the 2nd field or when you create a new field.<BR><BR>Matt
