It's time for a pile of "Hanselminutes on 9" Episodes, Dear Reader! Recently, I spent a day wandering around building 42 trying to dig up the scoop on Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET 4.
In this episode, I sit down with David Ebbo. He shows me a feature I didn't see coming! He takes an older-style ASP.NET 2.0 application and upgrades it to ASP.NET 4. He then enables the GridView with Dynamic Data features...but without adding any references or changing the web.config. He adds validation in seconds. You can maintain legacy apps *and* add new functionality, it seems!

Awsome. Dynamic Data is one of the best new features in 3.5SP1 and get better now. Thanks.

Brought to you by... Hormel?

On the asp.net site, give Dynamic Data its own section like AJAX and MVC. It looks great, but it could use some promotion.

Really Kool stuff! I'm under a tight deadline to upgrade an old ASP.NET 1.1 application. I'm changing the interface to Silverlight and will try to use this feature to bring this code up to date... Any Hints???
