Beginner ASP.Net question

[rchrch]

I'm a long time VBScript/Javascript/VB/VBA programmer just starting out learning .Net. I'm using Visual Basic Express Web Designer. I've set up a small SQL database with some simple tables, and I've added a DetailsView control to a page based on a data source that goes to one of the tables. I can see the fields in the designer window but when I do "view in browser", nothing shows up. I can do a response.write("hello world") and I see that, but when I do view source there is no sign of the details view at all. What am I missing?

TIA

Rob

Make sure that you have the control bound correctly. Also, the asp is a server side language. In the 'view source' you will only see the result of the response.write()
