I've created a tutorial movie to show the LLBLGenProDataSource2 (it's adapter, but selfservicing works the same) control in action, and I use a dropdown list control to filter the data which is then bound to a gridview on a webform.

The movie is flash and is 1.4MB and created with DemoBuilder 5. It was my first tutorial movie, and as it's so easy to create these videos, we'll have many more in the (near) future.

Frans,

It is amazing. Only a little thing: you say "select the row ..." when changing some properties and for me that sound weird, I think it would better "select the property ...."

Yes simple_smile All in due time simple_smile I hope to find a way to make them a bit smaller so the size in bytes is < 200KB or so, so we can include some in the .chm documentation.

Great video Frans

Observation: I have a 1024 x 768 screen setting (historical reason - don't ask!). This mean't that sometimes I could not see what was happening when the focus and interaction was happening at the botton of the screen.

Ah..maybe I am the only one in the world with this screen setting.

Yeah, I picked a random screenres, which looked ok. It couldn't be too small as that would be awkward for the stuff to display.

Though 1024x768? That's unworkable IMHO in vs.net...
