Datagrid for ASP?

I have a website that uses a database and ASP to create the pages
from this database.

Currently I have an application written that connects to the remote
database and allows me to add/change/delete records from the various
tables.

I want to get rid of my stand alone application and integrate this
ability into the website itself. i.e. Have the browser login and
then be able to operate on the tables using some sort of DataGrid
like component. There seems to be a lot out there for .NET but I was
wondering if there was something available for "classic" ASP?

This question is somewhat offtopic. ASP, remember, is about using
server-side script to
a) process request data
b) generate HTML to be sent to the client

However, there are components created to be used by server-side script - you
can probably get information about them in the components group.

Visual Interdev had some Design-Time controls (DTC's) that were frankly a
waste of time.

My apologies. I assumed that this component would be written in ASP and
generate the appropriate HTML for the browser to interact with

No apologies needed. I was not intending a rebuke.

I've done some datagrids (or something similar) myself but they can be
a little hard to explain in a post. But here are some links I found
that might hopefully be useful.

Thanks, Ill check that out too.

Just out of curiousity, my web server is using ASP because that's what I
loaded on it originally. Is it much effort to upgrade a site to ASP.NET?

Does the client have to have .NET installed as well or is it strictly a
server side thing (i.e. it does not generate code that requires .NET on the
client)?

There's not a huge reason (other than time to learn ASP.NET) that is
preventing me from upgrading to ASP.NET and using the .NET datagrid. Would
my existing pages have to change or is it backwards compatible?

Thanks again

Richard

It depends. Installing the framework is a snap. Your existing pages will
still run as if it's not even there. The "gotcha" comes if you want your
existing pages to use the framework. That will involve some rewrites: some
minor, but mostly major.

a server side thing (i.e. it does not generate code that requires
.NET on the client)?
No. Just as with classic ASP, ASP.Net is server-side technology that
generates html which is sent to the client.

See above.
