I am using a web service to return three datatables: 1 personal information, 1 contact info, and 1 other. I was wondering if there is any code out there or any suggestions on how I actually bind the data tables to the WebGrid. Thanks.

Hi,

Please see WebGrid starter kits there is an example called "OleDBDataAdapter/DataTable support"

I'm doing samething rigth now, you can use this code to use xml web service respond to create a databale and use it as datasource for your grid.

//read xml string
StringReader sr = new StringReader(xml);
XmlTextReader xmlTr = new XmlTextReader(sr);

//load xml data in dataset
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml(xmlTr);

//load xml data in grid
wgTest.SetDataSource(ds.Tables[0]);
wgTest.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];

The problem I have now is that the search option funcitonality in the grid column (dropdown list filter at the top) is dissapearing, if you can find a way to keep it working you will save me man

Hope it helps
