Based upon the amount of interest in a blog post I did awhile back I decided to put together a quick video demonstrating how the SqlDataSource can be used quickly and easily and how controls can be embedded using templates.
Keep in mind that I am not a big fan of using the SqlDataSource in "enterprise" applications but I do find myself using it quite a bit for admin pages where I need to update look-up tables or perform fairly straightforward operations with a minimal amount of code. For N-Tier/N-Layer applications I prefer to use the ObjectDataSource control where appropriate.
