How to bind grid in ASP.NET?
- by Abid Ali
I cant bind my Grid. I dont know what I am doing wrong, the grid appears empty when I run the program.
here is my code ::
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
this.BindGrid(this.GridView1);
}
private void BindGrid(GridView grid)
{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select * from Person", cn);
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
da.Fill(dt);
grid.DataSource = dt;
grid.DataBind();
}
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div style="margin-left: 240px">
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333"
