thanks, what if the user is allowed to update the Name, by putting
a textbox inside, how can it be updated?

<AlternatingItemTemplate>

<trbgcolor="lightyellow">

<td><asp:Textbox id=Firstname Text=<%#Container.DataItem("Firstname")%></td>

<td><asp:Textbox id=Lastname Text=<%#Container.DataItem("Lastname")%></td>

<td><%#Container.DataItem("Homephone")%></td>

</tr>

</AlternatingItemTemplate>
