1 row many columns is gridview best choice?

[Brenda Pasquarello]

I have 1 record with many fields of data per User id. I want to display the
data down the page in two-three columns w/ labels.

Is the Gridview the best choice for this? Or is that just best choice when
dealing with multiple records?

Is there another control I should consider, or just custom build a table
with labels and text boxes?

Thanks!

Hi Brenda,

It's better to use DataList and set datalist.RepeatColumns = 2 // or 3
