how to bind from database to a datalist using textbox

Hi @HOUSSEM MAHJOUBI ,

I wrote a demo for you, you can use it as a reference.

<form id="form1" runat="server">  
        <div>  
            <asp:DataList ID="dlCustomers" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">  
                <ItemTemplate>  
                    <table border="1">  
                        <tr>  
                            <td>EmpId:</td>  
                            <td><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("EmpId") %>'></asp:TextBox></td>  
                        </tr>     
                        <tr>  
                            <td>EmpName:</td>  
                            <td><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("EmpName") %>'></asp:TextBox></td>  
                        </tr>  
                        <tr>  
                            <td>EmpCity:</td>  
                            <td><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox3" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("EmpCity") %>'></asp:TextBox></td>  
                        </tr>  
                    </table>  
                </ItemTemplate>  
            </asp:DataList>  
            <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:TestConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT [EmpId], [EmpName], [EmpCity] FROM [Employee]"></asp:SqlDataSource>  
        </div>  
    </form>  

I suggest you use the Label control to populated the DataList, I think it looks a little more beautiful than the textbox control.

More information about the use of DataList control you can refer to this link: DataList-control-Tutorial-with-example-in-ASPNet.aspx
