My problem is that i am using a list of another site in my DVWP. Basically the list in on root site while the page on which it is using via DVWP is on a subsite 2 levels below from root site. So i think only changing ListID to ListName will not be enough. Can you tell me how to configure my new DVWP so that it can be deployed on other system where there will be list of same name on root site?

How can you include a URL link to the related document or list item? Creating the dataview is good but would like to provide a link back to the document from the Title name. cheers This is real great info, and i share the same question raised above.

I dont want the entire url to show. I only want the name of the document to be link to the file.

I seem to get that error you mention in step 4 from within the designer but the page renders and the data comes trhough fine. Any idea what is causing the designer to generate the error?
