Question

I have a GridView control setup like this:

<asp:GridView
    ID="UserList"
    AllowPaging="True"
    PageSize="20"
    runat="server">

    ...

I would like to be able to control the “AllowPaging” parameter of this control in my VB code, but I’m not sure how to add a “Show All” option to the page list at the bottom of the control. This is possible? Am I not thinking about this problem in the right way?

Answer 1

Sure you can. You create a <PagerTemplate> and include the show all option. In one of our applications, we have a DropDownList with pages sizes. We capture the OnSelectedIndexChanged event and set the GridView‘s page size.
