Hi everyone,

This is weird, please help. Its probably very simple but I'm stuck! I
have populated a dataset with some data from a session variable:

Dim dsTables As DataSet = Session("soLookupTables")


And now I am trying to display it to a DataGrid widget using the
following code:

Dim myTable As DataTable = dsTables.Tables("CNTYNAMES")
Me.DataGrid1.DataSource = myTable.DefaultView


Problem is though - nothing is appearing o nthe Web form page. I've
tried everything

a. try-catches (no errors thrown)
b. Closing down and opening up (no change)
c. DataGrid properties - everything looks okay


There is definitely data in the dataset. 2 tables to be exact. In the
one specified there are 16 rows. I have used code like:

Me.Label1.Text = dsTables.Tables("CNTYNAMES").Rows(0).Item(0)

and have seens some sensible data. I just don't know why the DataGrid
is not displaying. Please help me I'm stuck!!!

Thanks,
Al.
 
Al,

Are you calling the grid's DataBind method after setting its datasource?
