Solution 1

you can use Gridview, benefit of using gridview is you can easily insert update and delete.

You can implement by having TemplateField in a Gridview.

i dont think the grid will fulfill the purpose here.
you see i need to record items purchased by customer into DB with its price and no.(like making invoice in departmnt stores)
lets say i have 5 products in my store
1.Apple
2.ball
3.cat
4.dog
5.egg
now if the customers(ID=1001) buy apple and ball
i need to add following records in my DB
customer ID,item,item id,price,Qty
1.1001,apple,1,20,20
2.1002,ball,2,200,2
how can i take these inputs??

Is it the requirement that you need to place a single data display control on your web page? Will it be acceptable if you place a DropDownList and a GridView ? I meant to say, place a DropDownList, fill it will Customer ID/Name, on selection of any Customer, fill the GridView accordingly. Now you can easily use GridView for Add/Edit/Delete purposes.
