title: set label value in vb.net
body: <p>I'm usually a PHP guy but got stuck doing a project in vb.net.</p>
  
  <p>I have a query (sqldatasource) that returns a single value (the last update date).</p>
  
  <p>I want to use a label to say something like "Last updated: " &lt; Label = (returned value) ></p>
  
  <p>In PHP this would be simple. In vb.net, all I can find are endless badly written code behinds showing how you'd execute the query onLoad then bind it to the label.</p>
  
  <p>Is this really the only way to do this? It seems like a ridiculously simple problem to have such a long solution. I have used a datagrid control to just bind the query result directly, but it prints the column name as well as the date, so it's not ideal.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas? </p>
