Code Correction - Single Quotes
A correction is required to the ASP:Button code within the ItemTemplate element. The contents of the Text attribute should be within single quotes due to the fact its contents contain double quotes.
<asp:button id="button" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval( Container.DataItem, "Initials" ) %>' runat="server" />

New Set-up Routine
After publication, an automated set-up routine was added to the downloadable samples. The file connect-strings.ascx is different in this download, and does not need to be edited to specify the connection strings. Instead, they are specified in the appSettings section of the web.config file in the root folder of the samples. The set-up routine expects to find an instance of MSDE named .NetSDK (as provided with the .NET SDK). You can edit the connection strings in the appSettings section of web.config to specify a different database server or MSDE instance if required.

The following passage should be included on this page
Note, an important but subtle change in the final released version of ASP.NET is the Windows identity that the ASP.NET worker process runs as. In previous beta versions it was the ???System??? account. The final version uses a special Windows account created when the .NET Framework is installed: aspnet. For more details on the implications of these changes please see the chapter on security. This of course is still configurable using the username/password attributes of the settings. This error was corrected in the April 2002 reprint.

The default behaviour of the HashTable object has changed from Beta 2, and it will now throw an exception if the Key object is considered to match an existing Key object that is in use for an existing item in a HashTable. However, the remainder of the text concerning the behavior of the HashTable object is correct.
