Hello All,

I have a question hopefully some ASP.NET Guru can answer. I am trying
to build a nested style GridView for users to pull reports from a SQL
Database. The question is, "Can I create a GridView with the following
structure?" I know I can put GridViews' in columns but was wondering if
we can just do it in rows.

STRUCTURE:

I have 3 GridViews; A, B, and C.

In GridView A (THE TOP ONE), I have 5 rows. The rows are as follow.

ROW 1 = Header 1 ('Capital')

ROW 2 = GridView B (with its own header and footer [No Paging or
Sorting])

ROW 3 = Header 2 ('Operational')

ROW 4 = GridView C (with its own header and footer [No Paging or
Sorting])

ROW 5 = GridView A Footer

What's the purpose of GridView 'A'? Do you really need it?
How about a simple table?

What I want to display in the Footer of GridView A, is a calculated
field of each columns for GridView B and C.

So Basically,

GridView A - Footer Row - Column 1.= (Look Down)

[Grid View B Footer Row;Column 1] + [Grid View C; Footer Row; Column 2]

Example:

Column 1(Footer) of Gridview B = 10
Column 1(Footer) of Gridview C = 15

THUS

Column 1(Footer) of Gridview A = 25


Hope you understand what I am trying to write.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Frankly speaking... No! :-(
Unable to visualize at all.

Anyway... I think data-binding makes sense when there's a 'specific
template' that needs to be 'filled in' and not when there's no relation
between two data to be displayed.

IMHO, GridView at the main container would not make any sense... at least to
me.
