thanks
A repeater will create it's inside for every Element you give it
what do you need to do?
Html side
set everything you want to repeat for every File inside the <asp:repeater> tag
In your example you must add the LinkButton
Code side
Create the OnDataBound method for the repeater
for the given e.Item as filename you set the linkbutton with the data.
(know the first time you come accros the e.item can be null just leave the method
In the onLoad you can set your list of filenames as DataSet for the repeater and call the DataBound method.
What will happen?
The list is databound to the repeater and the repeater is called to be DataBound.
On that moment the Code will send every item one by one through the onDataBound method
there you'll set the inner Linkbox
hope to be clear and helpfull.
