    Hi, you must have seen on television how share rates of different companies are shown scrolling below even when some other news is going on. ( I don't recollect the name to this bar )

    In the similar way, i want to show moving rates . Whenever I update my table, new entry should be shown in that bar.

    Which control i should use for this? Any guidance?

    I think you are mentioning about 'ticker' control.

    Well, you can achieve this using the javascript marquee and but of ajax. Here are the steps

    1. Place a horizontal marque in the place where you want the ticker.

    2. Get the handle of the marquee from javascript.

    3. Write a script service for Ajax to retrieve the ticker content.

    4.Use javascript setTimeOut function to pool this method on desired interval

    5. Upon webservice call complete, update the marquee.

    Thats it!
