I've created a database filled with events. Now I've created an ASP.NET page that uses a code-behind file and accesses all the events and outputs them. This all works fine and dandy. What doesn't work is when I attempt to separate each entry using a table. Here is a code fragment:
lblAllInfo.Text = "<table>"
DO WHILE DBReader.Read()
lblAllInfo.Text = lblAllInfo.Text
lblAllInfo.Text &= "<tr><td>" & DBReader("mMonth") & "/"
lblAllInfo.Text &= DBReader("mDay") & "/"
lblAllInfo.Text &= DBReader("mYear") & " - "
lblAllInfo.Text &= DBReader("mEvent") & "</td></tr>"
Loop
DBReader.Close()
DBConnection.Close()
lblAllInfo.Text = lblAllInfo.Text
lblAllInfo.Text &= "</table>"

Any thoughts?

Why don't you use a Datagrid or Datalist?
