HorizontalList Control with Data Provider

     

HorizontalList control displays item in a horizontal list. It is very much similar to the List control that you have earlier used in the previous example. HorizontalList control can be useful in the application where we want to arrange items in horizontal direction only but not vertically. 

In our this example we have created an array collection item which consists of the name of the employees and this item list is attached to the HorizontalList control with the dataprovider property of the HorizontalList control.
