ASP.net is primarily a server side language. To minimize refreshing, I've always used JSript or VBScript.

make sure to put the creation of your datalist inside a sub like this

Private Sub Page_Load()

If not page.ispostback() then
'do all your time consuming work here it will only do it the first time a page is loaded

end if

end sub

This should minimize the time spent refreshing.

Put this in the top f your .aspx page.

In the <%@ Page section

smartNavigation="true"

reduces the appearance that page is refreshing. AFAIK.
