asp.net gridview template field with second row spanning mutiple columns

Question

Good Afternoon, I would like to know if this is possible. I have a gridview with several (4 template fields). The 4 fields include

1. First Name
2. Last Name
3. Phone
4. Email

What I would like to do is get a fifth data column(address) completely on a different row so that the data looks like this.

• Row #1 | First Name | Last Name | Phone | Email| Record #1
• Row #2 | Address | Record #1
• Row #3 | First Name | Last Name | Phone | Email| Record #2
• Row #4 | Address | Record #2

Can anybody help me with this, please?

For some reason this question is upvoted. I will wrote you an answer:

<table>
    <asp:Repeater runat="server" ID="repeater1" >
       <ItemTemplate>
          <tr>
               <td> <%#Eval("FirstName")%></td>
               <td> <%#Eval("LastName")%></td>
                    ....//other <td></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
               <td><%#Eval("Address")%></td>
          </tr>
       </ItemTemplate>
    </asp:Repeater>
</table>

I will leave for you the css part, also if you want to have column names look into <th> tags, but I don't know how you will achieve that properly when you have on row 1 columns different form row 2. If you want to have delete/edit functionality you should add new td with linkButton/ImageButton/Button with functionality which will delete/edit the current row. For this you will need <%#Eval("ID")%> in CommandArguments of the button. But again in this case this will be interesting because you have one record on 2 rows. The design decision is done by you this is the solution.

You should probably look how to have multiple columns on row 1 and only one on row 2, this was attribute of td colspan

In code behind:

        repeater1.DataSource = dst; // this should be data set containing all the needed values
        repeater1.DataBind();
