Simple question on Datagrid and Datalist.
-
Hi fellas, this should be a pretty simple question. Is it possible to restrict a datagrid or datalist in the number of records displayed? For example, I only want to show 1 record in a datagrid. (Since I have a bunch of records each time it ends up displaying everything retreived) I tried using Paging feature and manage to display only 1 record at a time, however the "page changer buttons ( < > )" is displayed, can it be disabled? Worse, Datalist doesn't seem to support paging, how exactly do I set the number of data to be displayed? Many, many thanks for the help.

Gridview is the best control to use if you want a lot of fancy features for free. You can set the number of items per page in the datagrid. I would personally aim to write SQL that only asks for the record you will be looking at, then your data control only gets to see what you want to show.
