Im using ASP.Net 2.0 and Nhibernate 1.2.0 beta


I have a DAO object that is returning a list of Client entity objects.


Im binding it to a grid view like this:

ClientsDAO clientDAO = new ClientsDAO();
IList results = clientDAO.Find(EmployerSearch_txtb.Text);
results_gv.DataSource = results;
results_gv.DataBind();

When is debug, im getting this exception:

"Data keys must be specified on GridView 'results_gv' before the selected data keys can be retrieved. Use the DataKeyNames property to specify data keys."

How do i get around this?

That isn't an NHibernate issue, but rather learning how to use the GridView in ASP.NET. I'd check the ASP.NET forums at www.asp.net.

I guess you need to specify your Datakeys in your Gridview. In other words you need to tell him which is the primary in your dataSource.
Example if your key is named "id" than it should look something like this:


Good luck, and btw. bosh is right, an ASP.NET forum would be a better try next time. :)
