how you want to display ? a list is nothing but the collection of objects just iterate through the items and add formatted text to label or gridview or any other control as you like.

i have updated the question i this this may help you to view my list to another page from a button click event to display it in label inside gridview

Check my solution and reply is that your trying or not

to display the data in thelabel (the data you collect from all the rows) simply assign the concatenated resulting string in the label using the relavent property.

if the label is server side label then use label.text property if its clientside label then use label.innerhtml property.

In your c# i'm not sure how to code it,
but its not difficult.

So if i provide it in VB maybe you will understand hopefully?

C#

YOUR CODE C#

for each (GridViewRow item in GridView1.Rows)
 {

 itemName = item.Cells[1].Text;
 id.Add(method to get id from database);
 }

VB

In VB 

For each (GridViewRow item in GridView1.Rows)
  itemName = item.Cells[1].Text
  id.Add(method to get id from database)
  'comment add the data ietem to a string
  strData = strData & itemName & vbcrlf 
  'Comment vbcrlf is same as chr(13) or enter or newline
Next
SomeLabel.Text = strData

Solution 2

C#

string labelTextData = string.Empty;
int count = GridView1.Rows.Count;
List id = new List();

foreach (GridViewRow item in GridView1.Rows)
{
 labelTextData += item.Cells[1].Text + ",";
 labelTextData += (method to get Id from Database);
}
label.Text = labelTextData;

is that what you want? for this you dont need the list.

here only one Text data will display right... i need all rows data lets say like this a,b,c for 3 rows

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 4:19am

it will add the result of all the rows give a try and see the result

sreeCoderMan 18-Dec-12 4:42am

yeah it will add the result... but displays the last added value only

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 4:45am

"it will add the result" is that what you want??

"displays the last added value only"
did you check the += operator . double check your code. or please update your question with latest code.

i need a comma in between this how to do that

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 4:50am

solution updated please refer the solution .

add ',' before adding the string. you can do it urself!! I bet.

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 4:54am

I saw your updated code. why do you need two looping? its not a good practice. there was a mistake in my previous code I forget to add += for the first assignment please check the updated solution it will work for you fir sure.

use of unassigned local variable itemName

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 5:00am

OMG.. you are totally lost :) take a break kid!!

sreeCoderMan 18-Dec-12 4:59am

i have edited my code to your code it shows unasigned local variable itemName

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 5:03am

am sorry.. Please use my code.. it wasnt my code in u r sample. I still see two loops :)

use string itemName = string.Empty; in C# you cannot leave any variable unassigned if such error comes check the variable definition and set its value to null or any default value matches to the condition. in this string.Empty will work for you.

sreeCoderMan 18-Dec-12 5:06am

labelTextData in your code, i am using itemName in which i am getting id on the basis of itemName from database my argument was itemName

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 5:08am

string itemName = string.Empty; to remove unassigned local variable compiler error

sreeCoderMan 18-Dec-12 5:13am

can u give your mail id

sreeCoderMan 18-Dec-12 5:35am

to get id from my database i use columns text to get the id from database so i cant use ","

Jibesh 18-Dec-12 5:43am

why dont u try defining a local variable and try all the formatting. think all the possible case before you start writing the code. write pseudo code (means general formulas not the real code) and try all possible cases then start using the visual studio.

Jibesh 20-Dec-12 7:06am

any luck ??
