How would you recommend the best way to access a database? By 'best' I mean,
what solution would allow me to modify the data as much as possible, e.g.
layout on the web page etc. I know in ASP 3, going through the data and
using recordsets i could output the data all over the place, but with a
datagrid or gridview, i am assuming it is stuck within that control? yes?
just started using dotnet so any tips would be great, thank you
