visual studio .net ide : Simple "Edit a Record" webform

I'm trying to simply select a record from a table listing, pass the Keyfield
to another webform and have the webform bind a series of TextBox controls to
the contents of the record selected. I then want the user to be able to
modify the fields contents and then click a "Save" button that will update
the record on the table and redirect the user back to the initial table
listing page.

There are too many fields to use a DataGrid, and it seems that all I can
find are articles and tutorials on doing this using a DataGrid.

Any advise on where to look for doing this seemingly simple task?

Thanks,

Doug,
I would use a DataGrid, but you could also use the DataRepeater. The
concepts are the same as a DataGrid. Perhaps you could start with a
DataGrid untill you get familiar with the concepts and then move to the
DataRepeater. This way "All the Examples" will apply. Good Luck
