GridView: Total Records

[Amelyan]

I need to get the total number of items/records returned into GridView.

If I just do myGridView.Rows.Count, then it just returns me the total number
of items on the page.

But if I have, 10 pages (10 records per page) and 98 records total,
Rows.Count will return me 10 on the first 9 pages, and 8, on the last page.

But, I need to somehow get access to total record count which is 98. What
is the proper/easy way to accomplish that?

Thanks,

You need to use the ReturnValue of the ObjectDataSourceStatusEventArgs or
SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs while handling the datasource's Selected event.
Look at this sample for the code

Thank you,

I have been looking for the Nested GridView sample (same web site, not the
page you give) for a few weeks now.

I didn't bookmark it, and figured I'd find it later.

Too much info on the internet sometimes.
