Filtering Custom Paged Results
Introduction
The ASP.NET 2.0 data web controls - the GridView, DetailsView, and FormView - all provide built-in paging support that can be enabled at the tick of a checkbox. Unfortunately, this built-in paging support is very inefficient when paging through large amounts of data since it naively grabs all of the records from the data being paged through even though only a subset of the records are displayed. Consequently, when paging through several hundred or thousands of records, it behooves you to implement custom paging. With custom paging, the data Web control hands over its paging responsibilities to us, the page developer. We are tasked with efficiently grabbing the precise subset of records to display and providing this information to the data Web control. -
