Hi people

Need an advice to create a dynamic c# ASP.Net gridview that will have different NavigateURL attribute in my column. E.g

COURSES
courseName
courseCode

Now the courseName must be a hyperlinkfield and the links must be different for each courseName

Sounds like homework. I certainly hope it's not paid work. I don't know what you mean by dynamic, but it sounds like you just want to create a template for your gridview that generates a URL from the data you're binding to. This is the first thing that any book or online example would teach you. Do you own any books ? Does your school ? Does google work where you live ?

XML

<Columns>
                <asp:HyperLinkField DataTextField="courseName" HeaderText="Course Tittle"
                    NavigateUrl="~/Default.aspx">
                    <HeaderStyle ForeColor="White" />
                </asp:HyperLinkField>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="courseCode" HeaderText="Course Code" ReadOnly="True"
                    SortExpression="courseCode" >
                    <HeaderStyle ForeColor="White" />
                </asp:BoundField>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="coursePrice" HeaderText="Course Price"
                    SortExpression="coursePrice" >
                    <HeaderStyle ForeColor="White" />
                </asp:BoundField>

XML

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
           ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:scheduleConnectionString %>"
           ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:scheduleConnectionString.ProviderName %>"
           SelectCommand="SELECT [courseName], [courseCode], [coursePrice] FROM [courses] ORDER BY [courseName]">
       </asp:SqlDataSource>
