I have purchased a developer's license. I have added the following code in the Global.asax file in the Application_Start sub-routine:

EO.Web.Runtime.AddLicense( _ (copied this from the license files you sent)

In a sub-routine in the code I do this:

Using conn2 As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("LocalSqlServer").ConnectionString)
Dim cmdRecordCount As New SqlCommand("Select Count(*) From tblCallScheduleImport", conn2)

'** Setup the command object......
cmdRecordCount.CommandType = CommandType.Text

Try
conn2.Open()
nRecordCount = CType(cmdRecordCount.ExecuteScalar, Integer)
Grid1.RecordCount = nRecordCount

Finally
cmdRecordCount.Dispose()
End Try

In debugging the code, the variable nRecordCount has the value of 7750. However, after the assignment to the Grid1.RecordCount, the Grid1.RecordCount still contains a value of 0.

I suspect it has something to do with the license file. But I cannot think of any other reason why that assignment will not take.

Any clues?

Glad that it works for you and thanks for the update!
