Datagrid/Datalist, same page, 2nd is details

B

Brock

First note that I am using Framework 1.1. I have an .aspx page that is
displaying a list of employees, but only the Employee Number, First
Name, Last Name, and Title. It is working great. I recessed it in a
<Div></Div> to allow scrolling of just the data, not the page. What I
need to do is place a DataList (also in a <Div></Div> to allow
scrolling of just the data) to the right of the Datagrid to show 40
Employee Detail fields (listed top to bottom). Ideally I'd like to
have a "Select" in the first column to allow the user to click on that
employee and see the scrollable details listed for that employee in
the DataList to the right of the DataGrid. Below is my html and below
that is my code-behind. What I need help with is getting a "Select"
column in and causing upon pressing that the rest of the 40 fileds to
display... Thanks for any clues! (also how can I get
both the DG and the DL to be placed side-by-side? I can't seem to move
these around in the designer.)

I was able to get my DataList placed on my form to the right of the
DataGrid. Now all I need to figure out is how to put in a "Select"
column and when the user presses that for a specific employee record
the DataList will be populated with the rest of the fields. Any
clues? Thanks!!! Below is my revised code. The
code-behind has not been changed from my original post.
