    <p>I have a basic GridView that displays a list of tasks to do (just an example)</p> <pre><code>&lt;asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" AllowSorting="True" &gt; &lt;Columns&gt; &lt;asp:BoundField DataField="todo" HeaderText="To Do" ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="todo" /&gt; &lt;asp:BoundField DataField="byDate" HeaderText="By When" ReadOnly="True" </code></pre> <p>SortExpression="byDate" /> </p> <p>the data source is specified within the aspx page and it is a result set from a stored procedure</p> <pre><code>&lt;asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="..." SelectCommand="pToDoList" SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure"&gt; &lt;/asp:SqlDataSource&gt; </code></pre> <p>So the rendered page presents tasks as rows of data (a row per task)</p> <p><strong>My question is</strong></p> <p>When there is not data returned by stored procedure the page remains blank. I would like to have a text instead saying for example: "nothing to do today" </p> <p>How to do that? Thank you</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
