GridView

A GridView displays the value of a data source in a table where each column represents a field and each row represents a record.

Step 1 : Open Visual Studio 2010.

Go to File->New->WebSite
Select ASP.NET Empty WebSite

Step 2 : Go to Solution Explorer and right-click.

Select Add->New Item
Select WebForm
Default.aspx page open

Step 3 : Go to the Default.aspx page and click on the [Design] option and drag the control from the Toolbox.

Drag ScriptManager, GridView, UpdatePanel, LinkButton, Button.

Step 4 : Go to Solution Explorer and right-click.

Select-> AddNewItem
Select SqlServerDatabase

Create Table

Step 5 : Go to ServereExplorer and click on the Database option.

Right click ->Table
Select Add New Table
Define Field

Step 6 : Now we define id, name, class, age for the complete data list.

Step 7 : Now go to Default.aspx page[Design] option and click on GridView control.

Select choose DataSource option

Define SqlDataSource

Step 8 : Now we select DataSource option.

Define SqlDataSource1

Connection String

Step 9 : Now click on New ConnectionString option and establish the connection String.

Code :

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [stu]"></asp:SqlDataSource>

ContentTemplate

Step 10 : Now go to Default.aspx[Source] option and define <contenttTemplate> and set the DataSource property to the "SQLDataSource1".

Code :

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
      <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
              onselectedindexchanged="GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged" Width="200px"
              BackColor="#72DE7A">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="id" HeaderText="id" SortExpression="id" />
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText ="id">
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("id") %>' OnClick= "LinkButton1_Click">LinkButton</asp:LinkButton>
                    <br />
                      </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>

Step 11 : We will now add columns to the GridView as shown below. Observe that the id is displayed as a link. We will display the studentdetail when the user clicks on the link.

Code :

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
              onselectedindexchanged="GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged" Width="200px"
              BackColor="#72DE7A">
          <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="id" HeaderText="id" SortExpression="id" />
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText ="id">
                <ItemTemplate>

Step 12 : Now go to Default.aspx page[Source] option and drag ModalPopupExtender control from Toolbox.

Define TargetControlID,
PopupControlID

<asp:ModalPopupExtender ID="ModalPopupExtender1" runat="server" TargetControlID="btnshowModalPopup" PopupControlID="divPopUp" PopupDragHandleControlID="panelD" DropShadow="true" BackgroundCssClass="popUpStyle">
</asp:ModalPopupExtender>

Step 13 : The Css File which are declare divpopup and PaneDragHandle Property for ModalPopupControl property.

CSS :

<style type="text/css">
    body
    {
        font: normal 12px auto "Trebuchet MS", Verdana;
        background-color: #ffffff;
        color: #4f6b72;
    }
    .popUpStyle
    {
        font: normal 11px auto "Trebuchet MS", Verdana;
        background-color: #ffffff;
        color: #4f6b72;
        padding:6px;
        filter: alpha(opacity=80);
        opacity: 0.8;
    }
    .drag
    {
         background-color: #dddddd;
         cursor: move;
         border:solid 1px gray ;
    }
</style>

Step 14 : Go to Default.aspx.cs file and write a code.

Code :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
  protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    }
    protected void GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }
    protected void LinkButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        LinkButton lb = sender as LinkButton;
        string id = lb.Text;
        lblValue.Text = id;
        string constr = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
        string sql = "SELECT name, class, Age FROM stu WHERE id = @id";
        SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(constr);
        SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, connection);
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", id );
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
        connection.Open();
        SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
        GridView2.DataSource = dr;
        GridView2.DataBind();
        connection.Close();
        ModalPopupExtender1.Show();
    }
}

Step 15 : Go to Default.aspx[Source] option write a code.

Code :

    <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </asp:ScriptManager>
    <div style="background-color: #9EA3C7">
        <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
      <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
              onselectedindexchanged="GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged" Width="200px"
              BackColor="#72DE7A">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="id" HeaderText="id" SortExpression="id" />
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText ="id">
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("id") %>' OnClick= "LinkButton1_Click">LinkButton</asp:LinkButton>
                    <br />
                      </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="name" HeaderText="name" SortExpression="name" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="class" HeaderText="class" SortExpression="class" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="age" HeaderText="age" SortExpression="age" />
            </Columns>
        </asp:GridView>
        <asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnShowModalPopup" style="display:none"/>
          <asp:ModalPopupExtender ID="ModalPopupExtender1" runat="server" TargetControlID="btnshowModalPopup" PopupControlID="divPopUp" PopupDragHandleControlID="panelD" DropShadow="true" BackgroundCssClass="popUpStyle">
          </asp:ModalPopupExtender>
          <div class="popUpStyle" id="divPopUp" style="display:none">
    <asp:Panel runat="Server" ID="panelD" CssClass="drag">|
        Hold here to Drag this Box
    </asp:Panel>
    <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblText" Text="id :"></asp:Label>
    <asp:Label ID="lblValue" runat="server"></asp:Label>
    <asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" Width="200">
    </asp:GridView>
    <br />
    <br />
    <asp:Button ID="btnClose" runat="server" Text="close" />
   <br />
</div>
        </ContentTemplate>
        </asp:UpdatePanel>
        <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
            ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
            SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [stu]"></asp:SqlDataSource>
    </div>
    </form>
