You can use Place Holder to create Controls at Runtime according to the Data into your database.

Use PlaceHolder...

like :

string s1 = "your query ";
SqlDataAdapter ad1 = new SqlDataAdapter(s1,con);
DataSet ds1 = new DataSet();
ad1.Fill(ds1);

if (ds1.Tables[0].Rows.Count != 0)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < ds1.Tables[0].Rows.Count; i++)
    {
        Label l = new Label(); // one label created at Runtime
        Label lbl = new Label(); // second label created at runtime
        l.ID = "l" + i.ToString(); // give ID to the first Label
        l.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Orange;
        lbl.ID = "lbl" + i.ToString(); // give ID to the Second Label

        l.Text = ds1.Tables[0].Rows[i][0].ToString(); // set text to the first label
        lbl.Text = ds1.Tables[0].Rows[i][1].ToString(); // set text to the second label
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(l); // add control to the Placeholder
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<br />")); // use for break one line
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(lbl); // add control to the placeholder
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<br />"));
    }

}
