Eight new tutorials have been added tomy Working with Data in ASP.NET 2.0 series. This latest batch of tutorials examines how to edit and delete data from the DataList control. These tutorials follow, in scope, the concepts discussed in the earlier edit/insert/delete-related tutorials that focused on the GridView, DetailsView, and FormView controls. These DataList-specific tutorials, however, do include a look at performing batch updates (a topic lacking from the GridView/DetailsView/FormView-specific ones). As always, each tutorial is available in both VB and C#, includes the full working code as a downloadable ZIP, and can be downloaded as a PDF for offline access.

When I started writing these tutorials I was slated to write 46 in total, and, to date, 43 of the 46 are up at http://www.asp.net/Learn/DataAccess/. (They are also being added to MSDN's website, but at a much more glacial pace.) Anywho, the good news is that I've signed on to author another 29 tutorials over the coming months, which will continue the series and be available at http://www.asp.net/Learn/DataAccess/as they come online.

Here is the planned outline. The content to be covered is pretty much solidified, but there may be some slight modifications, reordering of sections/tutorials, and so forth. I've actually completed the set of tutorials on the SqlDataSource (the first four), and will start hammering out the next set this week, time permitting.
