Question

asp.net VB grouping datalist or datagrid results

I have a database table with the following :
fabricname | Grade | Category

I need it to list like this :

Category1 Grade A
fabricname 1
fabricname 2
fabricname 3

Category1 Grade B
fabricname 1
fabricname 2
fabricname 3

Category2 Grade A
fabricname 1
fabricname 2
fabricname 3

Etc. Etc.

classic ASP, this would be very easy but in ASP.NET, I have no idea.
Everything on google seams to be done with Visual Studio and I don't know if Dreamweaver is too limiting to do that sort of stuff and if I need to switch to Visual Studio

Any pointers ?

I actually found that tutorial before but it is not what I need. In that example, they have 2 different tables. Categories and Products. I only have 1 table that looks like this :

Category1 | Grade A | fabricname1
Category1 | Grade A | fabricname2
Category1 | Grade A | fabricname3
Category1 | Grade B | fabricname4
Category1 | Grade B | fabricname5
Category2 | Grade A | fabricname6
Category2 | Grade B | fabricname6
etc. etc.

You really think that there would be a simple way to group this list. I'm considering changing my whole project from ASP.NET back to classic ASP.

Also that tutorial just errors out anyway... you get the error "BC30269: Method 'Page_Load' has multiple definitions with identical signatures." I don't think it works with Dreamweaver.
