To display data from my database and after the
user enter name to search in TextBox and hits the search button. GridView
displays the results on the same page. This is the important functionality of
web page. To do that we create a table in SQL Server database.
Creating Table
Now creates a table with the ID, name, city,
country. Table has named as location. Table looks like below.

Figure1
Now drag and drop 1 TextBox, 1 Button and 1
GridView control on the form.
