I can't seem to figure out how to convert some ASP code to ASP.Net, and I cannot do without it. All my pages have navigation on the left hand side that is constructed from tables in my SQL database.

I can't seem to figure out how to convert some ASP code to ASP.Net, and I cannot do without it. All my pages have navigation on the left hand side that is constructed from tables in my SQL database. A hierarchy of main menus and sub menus is returned from SQL. Example: Main Menu 1 Submenu 1 Submenu 2 Main Menu 2 Submenu 1 Submenu 2 Main menus and sub menus have a relational field called “MainMenuLink”. Also, certain actions are taken depending on variables located in the Submenus table. If you want to see the code in action, go to fpg.mcphu.edu/templates/help.asp. I have removed everything but the navigation to make things easier. An example of the code in production can be seen at www.topdocsonline.com/Pediatrics. The code can be viewed at fpg.mcphu.edu/templates/help.txt. I can't tell you how much I would appreciate some assistance with this. I am going crazy trying to figure this out. I have left work the past couple days exhausted from spending all day experimenting and searching for an answer, but I haven't gotten any close to solving my problem! <img src=../images/dnzone/forum/icon_smile_dead.gif border=0 align=middle> Thanks in advance!

This menu can easily be done using few datagrids or (better solution) using one repeater. I don't understand what exatly your problem is.

What you will need is to put a HyperLink control in your above mentioned preferred list control: vfarcic is correct. A DataList (more than a DataGrid) or a Repeater control will do the trick. What you will need is to put a HyperLink control in your above mentioned preferred list control:< *asp:Hyperlink Id="HyperLink" Runat="server" NavigateURL="< *%#DataBind.Eval(Container.DataItem, "myLink"  %* >">< *%#DataBind.Eval(Container.DataItem, "myMenuItem"%* >< */asp:HyperLink> *remember to eliminate the extra speces I have put to let you see the code...
