Hello,
Probably the simplest way is #2:

>> 2). You could use a template column, and concatenate the
>> variables.

The steps to do this:
1 - add a template column to your datagrid (if you haven't
used template columns before, just check the MSDN help,
they're really straight forward).
2 - the template column lets you create custom HTML for
each cell, so you could do something like:
<a>href="<%....%>?IN=<%....%>&PON=<%....%>><%....% ></a>

3 - I replaced each [var] with a databind expression,
something like <% ....%> where "..." is the syntax to
databind (look at databinding to a repeater or datagrid in
MSDN for the exact syntax, I don't remember it off the top
of my head).

That should do it.

Tim
