Hi,

My SqlDataSource selectcommand is dynamically changed by the String.Format functionality of the Eval one-way databinding syntax. It works ok. However I need to put together two columns values with a space in the middle (ItemType + '" "' + ItemDescription As ItemInfo) but I can't get the syntax correct as I get the message: "The server tag is not well formed"

Can you help? Many thanks

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:conn %>" SelectCommand='<%# Eval("TypeID", "SELECT ItemID, ItemType, ItemType + '" "' + ItemDescription As ItemInfo WHERE ItemType = {0}")%>'> </asp:SqlDataSource>
