Gridview Control

Question

Since I am new with working with C#asp.net web controls 2010, I have the following question to ask about the gridview control:

1. Since there a way to change the orientation of the gridview control. Instead of being horizontal orientation, I would like the the gridview control to be vertical display? This column names would go down the left side of the grid? If this is possible, what do I need to do change the orientation?

2. I want to embeded dropdown list controls in different cells. Is there a way you recommend I accomplish this task? Is there some like 'BulkEditGridView' for dropdown list controls?

HI... This code help you for displaying column names in left side of gridview. private void BindData() { DataSet ds = this.GetDetail(); // Some DataSet DataSet new_ds = FlipDataSet(ds); // Flip the DataSet DataView my_DataView = new_ds.Tables[0].DefaultView; this.my_DataGrid.DataSource = my_DataView; this.my_DataGrid.DataBind(); } public DataSet FlipDataSet(DataSet my_DataSet) { DataSet ds = new DataSet(); foreach(DataTable dt in my_DataSet.Tables) { DataTable table = new DataTable(); for(int i=0; i { table.Columns.Add(Convert.ToString(i)); } DataRow r; for(int k=0; k { r = table.NewRow(); r[0] = dt.Columns[k].ToString(); for(int j=1; j r[j] = dt.Rows[j-1][k]; } table.Rows.Add(r); } ds.Tables.Add(table); } return ds; } If you got correct solution then mark as Accepted Answer.
