We are currently finalizing the details for this event.
1. C# Collections
Collections are ubiquitous in C#.NET. The array has been around almost as long as the first programming languages and it remains useful to this day. C# implements managed arrays and various other collections, including the very powerful and lightning fast generic collections. It is difficult to imagine any program that does not in some way make use of a collection, though sometimes it's hard to decide which one is the most appropriate for your specific development problem. We'll examine the inner workings of some of these collections, enabling us to use them more appropriately and effectively.

2. Datalists in .NET
Datalists in .NET provide more flexibility than the Datagrid but not the option to easily set paging like the Datagrid. We’re going to look at a real life example of paging using SQL Server 2008, some of it’s benefits and pitfalls, it’s performance, and some comparisons and reasons to choose between SQL Server paging and paging using the SQL Data Adapter.
