I have been studying the various examples on the internet of simple basic ASP, and I have to ask... What is the simplest way to present a recordset to a user in a view-only table or grid? What I see in all the posted code snips is a LOT of coding that creates a table with multiple columns, and then drop to a new row, and does it all over again until you reach eof.

Has anyone seen a grid control in Foxpo? You just tell it the recordset, and
BOOM... all the columns, rows, sliders, everything is right there with
hardly and code. I guess it is the difference between Object Oriented
Programming in a GUI, versus line-by-line coding in a text editor.

With ASP, it just seems hugely code intensive to display data in a grid.
Its like we've taken step backwards with this ASP stuff. Don't get me
wrong... It is very cool to connect to a database from a web page, and even
be able to snag a few records that match a user input. That part is both
powerful, and requires only a small amount of code. But try to present that
data to a user, and that's where the work really comes in.

Maybe ASP.NET is the answer to all this, and I just don't know it.
