Question

I have a table with the following structure,

I need to restructure the table to show the CustomSpaceName in the following order,

Space3          Personal Case           Quick case

Space1          Space2

For each entry I will create a link button and pass the CustomSpaceId in query string.

So which is the ASP.NET Data Control matches best with my requirement. I think using the loop and generate table structure is a BAD idea.

Answer 1

No Need of doing that with a old method when ASP.net gives you GridView and other Data Bounding controls

Basically gridview will do the same operation that you told in a efficient way.
You can use the in-built methods.

1. Grid View
2. Repeater
3. ListView
4. DataList

Here I will recommend DataList.
Use RepeatColumns="4" property.

<asp:DataList ID="DataList1" RepeatColumns="4" runat="server">
            <HeaderTemplate>
                <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lbl1" Text='Header'></asp:Label>
            </HeaderTemplate>
            <ItemTemplate>
                <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lbl1" Text='<% Eval("CustomSpaceName ") %>'></asp:Label>
            </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:DataList>
