From all the I have read, I still can't figure out when to use the right control. Could someone please tell me what the appropriate time is to use each control?

Datalist vs. Datagrid

Anakin: The Datagrid supports additional features over the DataList, e.g., Paging and sorting. Templates are not needed in a DataGrid (simple binding e.g.). The Datagrid, by default, shows grid lines, etc... Some column types that are supported in the DataGrid not available in the DataList, e.g., the hyperlink column and ButtonColumn.
I would say functionality and customizability are superior in the DataGrid in comparison with the DataList.
