Alternative to datagrid control in framework 4.0

[Big George]

Hello,

Many years ago I developed a web site in asp.net 1.1. Then I switched
to a database position.

Now, for job reasons, I have to go back to programming in ASP.NET. I
would use framework 4.0.

My web application in asp.net 1.1 used a lot of datagrid controls. I
suppose that datagid control is now deprecated. What would be the new
better control that replaces datagrid in framework 4.0?

I would say GridView.

Also note that besides ASP.NET Web Forms now you can also choose
ASP.NET MVC !

Thanks for your opinion.

I heard that learning MVC is more difficult than web forms, do you
think so?

No. Especially not if you have experience with a PHP/Java/Ruby/Python
MVC web framework.

Yes, it has a learning curve. Once u get adjusted with it, you will have a better architecture to work with.
