Linda, Steve - I solved it like this using a template:
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Term" ItemStyle-VerticalAlign="Top"> <ItemTemplate> <a href= "SqlLoadsDetail.aspx?Company=<%# Container.dataitem("LACMPY")%> &loadno=<%# Container.dataitem("LALOD#")%>"> <%# Container.dataitem("LATRMC")%></a> </ItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateColumn> A HyperLinkColumn would be simpler and should support this as multiple parameters are common.

Same here. I rolled my own URL string in the database stored procedure, after a frustrating day of trying to use the values of multiple fields to build a query string with multiple parameters. Seems like it should be a pretty basic issue, as multiple-parameter query strings are as common as air. Excuse the analogy.

I searched the documentation and could not find a way of linking multiple fields using the DataNavigateUrlFormatString property. In the end I actually created the composite field in the database and then used the DataNavigateUrlFormatString property. Alternatively you could create a composite field in the dataset before you bind to the datagrid and then just link that field. -----Original Message----- From: Marshall Harrison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 23 April 2002 4:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DOTNET] How do you bind a DataGrid HyperLinkColumn to more than one field ? I have a HyperLinkColumn defined as : <Columns> <asp:HyperLinkColumn HeaderText="Term" DataNavigateUrlField="LACMPY" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="SqlLoadsDetails.aspx?Company={0}" DataTextField="LATRMC" /> </Columns> In reality the hyperlink needs two fields to make it work (i.e SqlLoadsDetails.aspx?Company=ABC&LoadNo=1 ) with each parameter coming from a different database field. I can't seem to find a way to get both fields into the DataNavigateUrlFormatString. Can someone tell me how to do this? Thanks.
