Question

Anybody see what’s going on with the code below. I’m trying to dynamically create LinkButtons with dynamic Text and ID values from the database.

        rptHeadline.DataSource = ds;

        LinkButton lb = new LinkButton


        if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count <= 0) {

        lb.Text = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0]["URL"].ToString();
        lb.ID = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0]["URL"].ToString();

        }

        rptHeadline.DataBind();

Answer 1

The statement LinkButton lb = new LinkButton is incomplete. You need to add (); to call the default constructor.

LinkButton lb = new LinkButton();
