Hi,

I have a simple aspx page. The sqlDataSource1 has a select running against sql 08 db, and the DataList was able to bind to the return values.

Now when I tried to feed that data into several textboxes, I got stucked.

Neither syntax get me the data. :(

<%# DataBinder.Eval(SqlDataSource1 , "ID") %>
no error but SqlDataSource1 itself showed

<asp:TextBox ID=txt Text="<%# status %>" runat=server />
error: CS0103: The name 'status' does not exist in the current context

I have Page.DataBind(); in the page_load on the code behind file.

I haven't done front end coding for a while. This is in vs 2010.

Thanks!

I would not use sql datasource, I would advice you to use object data source and bind the values to a textbox on the code behind

this might help
