i'm looking for a mechanism to extract the current user's detail into my form. i've googled & found 2 ways: 1) through a web service:http://weblogs.asp.net/wkriebel/archive/2005/01/24/359669.aspx --> I don't understand what it means by ''[MyPortal]'' though.. 2) using help from Visual Studio .NET ...

hi Shanthi, thanks for the reply :) hmmm i've tried the 2nd approach u suggested before n it really didn't work as what i expected. do u know the semantic for setting a control to be ''read-only'' programmatically though?

is it possible to specify 2 data connections to point to the same data source (in this case the share point list)? so is the 1 data connection used to read from the share point list while the other used to write to the same sharepoint list?
