Best Practice in Sectioning Results

[acent]

Greetings.

I'm looking for the best way to section off results in a GridView. For instance, I Have my GridView with a series of dated events:

_______________________________
|        |Date      |Description
| Delete |1/1/2009  |blah
| ..... 
| Delete |1/10/2009 |blah
| ..... 
| Delete |1/31/2009 |blah
| ..... 
--------------------------------

How do I change this to look like:

_______________________________
|        |Date      |Description
| This Week 
| Delete |9/20/2009 |blah
| ..... 
| Last Week 
| Delete |9/14/2009 |blah
| ..... 
| 2 Weeks Ago
| Delete |9/7/2009 |blah
| ..... 
--------------------------------

I was thinking of nesting some gridviews, but this seems like more overhead than should be necessary. I had thought about some repeaters, but then deleting an event would be interesting to say the least.

Thanks for the help.

use either nested listviews (asp.net 3.5) or repeaters to generate the html. gridviews are not nearly as flexible to customize the table configuration.
