Thanks for the insite. I wonder how that will affect the behavior of Bind. It's for updating the DB also. My types are all templated using Wilson OR Mapper and Conessto templates. They make two partial classes. One for editing. I guess that is what I'll do. -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of building .NET applications targeted for the Web [mailtoOTNET-WE BDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM] On Behalf Of Marc Brooks Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 1:07 AM To: DOTNET-WEBDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM Subject: Re: [DOTNET-WEB] Bind expression syntax > The old Eval binding method allowed you to specify a child object > property, such as: > > <%# Eval("EmployeeStatusObject.Description") %> > > How do you accomplish this with the new Bind method?
