            string constr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["locations"].ConnectionString;
            using (MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection(constr))
            {
                using (MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM locations where  "))
                {
                    using (MySqlDataAdapter sda = new MySqlDataAdapter())
                    {
                       
                        cmd.Connection = con;
                        sda.SelectCommand = cmd;
                        using (DataTable dt = new DataTable())
                        {
                            sda.Fill(dt);
                            ListView1.DataSource = dt;
                            ListView1.DataBind();
