Problem with data display

[g2000]

I was told to put the databind(access) code inside
if (!Page.IsPostBack) { ..... } because that saves the data for selecting an item.

But if I did that, I would lose all data (nothing shows up) if I sort / get to another page afterwards.

Simply speaking, is it necessary to use datasource object?

You need to grab the data each time the the page is posted back, IE on a sort or page event. Otherwise you are binding to a DataSet that has no data in it.
