Question

In my code i create a HyperLinkField object. Depending on a database field value, i want to set the NavigateUrl property. This is my problem, i don’t know how.

With:

objHF.DataNavigateUrlFields = new[] { 'id', 'Stype' }; 

i get my database field. Now i want to check the Stype value. Depeding on this value i want to set the page where to navigate to. How can i do this??

At the end i set my datasource to the gridview and after that i call the bind() method.

I hope someone can help me out

Make the HyperLinkField a TemplateField, and set the NavigateUrl of the resulting HyperLink (in markup) to something like

<%# myUrlFunction(Eval('id'), Eval('stype')) %> 

Next create a corresponding function in the .cs file:

private string myUrlFunction(object id, object stype) {     return 'mypagename.aspx?whatever=' + id.ToString() +          '&youwanttodo=' + stype.ToString(); }
