Hi All I was wondering is it possible to see the entire code of a program? For example, I have a very simple asp.net page with a data grid in it. If I view the source code I cannot see anything that refers to the declaring of the data grid. Same if I add a button from the toolbox to the page, no where can I see the code for the creation of the button yet at the same time, in code view I can add a button by typing a line of code. Is everything created using VS tool boxes hidden in code view? And if so is there anyway of seeing that code? I'm just trying to get a better understanding of what I create. Thanks for any help gerryR |

In a windows app there is code to add the controls. In asp there is the markup language which can see. This is where/and how the controls are created. You will have to open both the code and the design (markup) to see both. If you want to you can decide not to use code behind and place the code into the aspx page but I don't recommend that. LS |

Hi Lloyd The problem is I cant seem to see the markup code for anything. I have a new site, it has default.aspx, default.aspx.vb and web.config. When I open web.config in code view I can see all the doce (connnection string etc) when I open default.aspx or default.aspc.vb in code view All I see is: Partial Class _Default Inherits System.Web.UI.Page End Class Even though I have a datagrid created and in design view I can see the data grid. Shouldn't I be able to see some code refering to that data grid when in code view? Thanks for any help gerryR PS- The data grid is working, when I view in browser it displays my data correctly.

Scratch that, I just found the "Source" button, I was expecting to see the source when I went into code view but I guess code view only refers to the VB in the project?
