Hello everyone,

C#

Employee name      Date And Time

Xing Zuber         2013-07-13 09:10 PM
Daving solman      2013-07-13 09:08 PM
Iyan Yokovich      2013-07-12 09:00 PM 
Dev richardson     2013-07-03 09:11 PM
Xing Zuber         2013-07-03 09:16 PM
Xing Zuber         2013-07-11 09:02 PM
Dev richardson     2013-07-11 09:15 PM
.......................................

I have same structure in database,and i am able to display this in gridview(Same as shown in above sample),that's fine.

I need to display it like below.

C#

Name            2013-07-13   ...2013-07-11    ...2013-07-03  ..........
Xing Zuber      09:10 PM       09:02 PM        09:16 PM      ..........
Dev richardson  ........       09:15 PM        09:11 PM      ..........

My question is,

1) Which is the appropriate control to use in such scenario?

2) What approach should i look at in order to get this?

I will have two calenders at top of the page to select dates. When user selects the date from it,data needs to be displayed between those dates.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Regards..

Steps to do:
1) Create Stored Procedure (SP)[^]
2) Copy And Paste below code into the body of SP:

SQL

CREATE TABLE #EmpInput (EmpName VARCHAR(30), DaTi SMALLDATETIME)

INSERT INTO #EmpInput (EmpName, DaTi)
SELECT 'Xing Zuber', '2013-07-13 09:10 PM'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Daving solman', '2013-07-13 09:08 PM'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Iyan Yokovich', '2013-07-12 09:00 PM' 
UNION ALL SELECT 'Dev richardson', '2013-07-03 09:11 PM'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Xing Zuber', '2013-07-03 09:16 PM'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Xing Zuber', '2013-07-11 09:02 PM'
UNION ALL SELECT 'Dev richardson', '2013-07-11 09:15 PM'

DECLARE @cols VARCHAR(300)
DECLARE @dt VARCHAR(1000)
DECLARE @pt VARCHAR(4000)

SET @cols = STUFF((SELECT DISTINCT '],[' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DaTi,121)
					FROM #EmpInput
					ORDER BY  '],[' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DaTi,121)
				FOR XML PATH('')),1,2,'') + ']'
--SELECT @cols AS Cols

SET @dt = N'SELECT EmpName, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DaTi,121) AS IDate, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DaTi,108) AS ITime
		FROM #EmpInput'
--EXEC(@dt)

SET @pt = N'SELECT EmpName, ' + @cols + ' ' +
		'FROM (' + @dt + ') AS DT ' + 
		'PIVOT(MAX(ITime) FOR IDate IN(' + @cols + ')) AS PT '
EXEC(@pt)


DROP TABLE #EmpInput

3) Change the code to your needs
4) Call SP from ASP.NET code behind[^] and bind result to a gridview ;)

End ;)
