Looking for Silverlight control equally compared to ASP.Net GridView

11-02-2009 5:50 PM |

Hi all, I've played around with the DataGrid but it's not up to par to ASP.Net GridView. The GridView allowed flexibility and ease passing DataTextFormatString and DataNavigateUrlFields for binded data which can be quite useful specifying this at the tag level. Anyone know of a control close the ASP.Net GridView other than DataGrid? Thanks.

Hi Ken, I attemped this before with the help of another. Thing is, I don't find it flexible enough to pass multiple values. How would I pass more than one value or have multiple querystring values? I have no problem passing one value with one hardcoded URL.

 Something I'd like would be like http://www.microsoft.com?id=1&color=red&season=winter. Something like that but at the Xaml tag level. If I can get it at the Xaml level, it be more flexible. I think this may be the solution but yet have figured how to do it.

I'm thinking of formatting the string:

return new Uri(string.Format("http://www.microsoft.com?id={0}&color={1}&season={2}", value, value, value));

but how would that look if in the xaml level passing multiple bindings and possibly passing the URL in? 

Thanks
