Summary
This chapter discussed how you can connect to various data sources and present read views and/or write forms using the Data View Web Part functionality. In addition, it covered the options for customizing the presentation of that data by filtering what data is shown, sorting and grouping the data, connecting to other Web Parts, linking to source data and formatting the data based on conditional criteria. Finally, we discussed the advanced capabilities for creating formulas to calculate rows and provide advanced sorting, filtering, or formatting criteria provided by XPath expressions included in your data view.
