How to create a custom asp.Net Templated Databound Control ?

Question

I would like to know if there is a good source of documentation for creating Asp.Net Templated Databound Controls or code samples for simple controls.

All the documentation I have seen on the net seems way too complex. Is there a place where it is explained in a simple and easy to understand manner ?

I could also be interested in text books, if this is the place where you have found the simplest explanation on how to do it.

Note: I don't care if articles/code samples are for C# or VB.NET

• Developing Microsoft ASP.NET Server Controls and Components
• http://www.nikhilk.net/

Those are all you need to know, in addition to the MSDN documentation: Developing Custom ASP.NET Server Controls.

It's not a simple area.
