title: Many-to-many updates, deletes etc... vb.net 2005
body: <p>Forgive what is probably a question that get's asked a lot, but I'm just not getting it.  I've searched quite a bit, but I can't quite see clearly from other's posts what I'm missing</p>
  
  <p>It basically comes down to using vb asp.net 2005 and linked tables that have a manny-to-manny relationships, while using a checkbox list.   </p>
  
  <p>Can someone please describe, or point to a walkthrough that helps me through this concept?  I'd really like to see an example.  I'd also like to see how it's done in classic asp or VB asp.net 2.0 so that I can see more fundamentally how it works, before venturing into the new entity framework, and LINQ.</p>
  
  <p>If there are two tables (say People and Catagories) and they are related with a linked table (PeopleCategories), how might I use a FormView in ASP.net to first display, but ultimately edit, insert or delete one or all the categories that are linked to that People record with the linking table.  If I can really fully understand this, I would be very, very, very thankful.</p>
