A simple nested datagrid (vb.net)?

Hi all

What is the best way to do a simple nested datagrid?
I have a tableA with personID, first name and last. TableB with
information on personID. I am looking for a way to bring
name values on a datagrid and when selected it would show person
information.

Like this:

William Tom 01
Lorens Jack 02
Nash Mike 03

When selected Lorens Jack ->

William Tom 01
Lorens Jack 02
Info Info Info
Info Info Info
Info Info Info
Info Info Info
Nash Mike 03

That is done in the SQL statement.

You need to JOIN on the key field present in both tables.

But that would just get me

William Tom 01
Lorens Jack 02 Info Info Info Info Info Info
Lorens Jack 02 Info Info Info Info Info Info
Lorens Jack 02 Info Info Info Info Info Info
Nash Mike 03

or?

Here is an example what I found

But I had some problems with that.

That example you point to uses *exactly* what I said you should use :

strSQL &= "FROM Employees INNER JOIN "
strSQL &= "Orders ON Employees.EmployeeID = Orders.EmployeeID INNER JOIN "
strSQL &= "Customers ON Orders.CustomerID = Customers.CustomerID INNER JOIN "
strSQL &= "[Order Details] ON Orders.OrderID = [Order Details].OrderID INNER JOIN "
strSQL &= "Products ON [Order Details].ProductID = Products.ProductID "
strSQL &= "WHERE Employees.EmployeeID = " & x & " ORDER BY orderdate DESC"
