embedding a datagrid in a Repeater

[DebbieAlger]

I have had some success placing a datagrid into a repeater, but not total success. I basically want
a Repeater of completed results, within each result there is a datagrid dedicated to the result. I have tried putting arrays into arrays, and arrays into arraycollections, but all the data goes into the first datagrid. This also opens up the next problem, how to get access to each individual result in each datagrid.

Example of what I want.

Result 1
Datagrid with 4 rows of info related to Result 1

Result 2
Datagrid with 4 rows of info related to Result 1

etc.

thanks,

OK, I actually figured out the datagrid in repeater, but now have a problem getting access to the index of each individual item in the datagrid. I can get the index and info of the parent repeater information, but not the datagrid info, such as the checkbox index.

thanks.
BTW, is there a better way for me to show code in these forums???
