Dim connStr, sql as String
connStr ="Driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};server=192.168.2.14;Port=3306; DATABASE=vome; option=0"
ConODBC = New OdbcConnection(ConnStr)
conODBC.Open()


cmdSelect = New OdbcCommand( "SELECT * FROM worklist", conODBC)
dtrworks = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader()




linklist.DataSource = dtrworks
linklist.DatatextField = "img_title"
linklist.DatavalueField = "img_link"
linklist.DataBind()

dtrWorks.Close()

Dim profile

Well first off you close the dtrworks and then call it two lines later. And you dim profile as nothing?

...
dtrWorks.Close()

Dim profile
profile.DataSource = dtrworks
profile.DataTextField = "img_name"
profile.DataTextField = "img_age"
profile.DataTextField = "img_sch"

profile.DataBind()

hm.. yea... looks like im doing it in a java way.

btw, is there a way to click on the itemlist den other info from the database (including text and flash file links) to display on the same page?

Yes.

If it is in the DB, you can display it in ASP.Net. How you want to, is up to you.

Logic and programmatic pseudo-code it to determine when you want to fire a particular event to display and how you want to display it.

Good Luck
