Hi Don,

Also to note in case you weren't aware, the reader only allows forward navigation.

>I am trying to figure out how to review the records retrieved with a SqlDataSource in code without using a display control. My research thus far suggests this can be done via a DataReader but I am unable to figure it out. If the datasource is SqlDataSource1 and it is configured to return a DataReader, can someone show me how to get at the records with VB? Something like:
>

>dim oReader as Data.SQLClient.SQLDataReader = SqlDataSource1.DataReader

> While oReader.Read()
>    Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}, {1}", oReader(0), oReader(1)))
> End While
