I have an ASP.NET application that is fairly basic. It queries some data and displays the data in a GridView (0 – 2000 or so records possible). I’ve been trying to find some ways to make it zippier, best practices, etc. as it seems to be a little sluggish while the GridView is being rendered. I’ve seen some threads on utilizing CSS vs. setting all the styles directly on the GridView, but I’m not sure how this would look.

This is what the GridView looks like right now…

<asp:GridView ID='gvResults' runat='server' DataKeyNames='ORDNO' AutoGenerateColumns='False'     CellPadding='4' ForeColor='#333333' OnSelectedIndexChanged='gvResults_SelectedIndexChanged'     Width='100%' OnRowDataBound='gvResults_RowDataBound' meta:resourcekey='gvResultsResource1'>     <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor='White' ForeColor='#284775' />     <Columns>         <asp:BoundField DataField='CSTNO' HeaderText='CUST' meta:resourcekey='BoundFieldResource1' />         <asp:BoundField DataField='ORDNO' HeaderText='RMA NUMBER' meta:resourcekey='BoundFieldResource2' />         <asp:BoundField DataField='CSTORD' HeaderText='CUST PO NUMBER' meta:resourcekey='BoundFieldResource3' />         <asp:BoundField DataField='ORDDTE' HeaderText='ORDER DATE' meta:resourcekey='BoundFieldResource4' />         <asp:BoundField DataField='INVDTE' HeaderText='INVOICE DATE' HtmlEncode='False' meta:resourcekey='BoundFieldResource5' />         <asp:CommandField ShowSelectButton='true' ButtonType='Link' meta:resourcekey='CommandFieldResource1'  />     </Columns>     <EditRowStyle BackColor='#999999' />     <EmptyDataTemplate>         <span style='color: Red;'>             <asp:Literal ID='litErrorNoRMAFound' runat='server' EnableViewState='False' meta:resourcekey='litErrorNoRMATagsFoundResource1'                 OnInit='litErrorNoRMAFound_Init'></asp:Literal>         </span>     </EmptyDataTemplate>     <FooterStyle BackColor='#5D7B9D' Font-Bold='True' ForeColor='White' />     <HeaderStyle BackColor='#3494CC' Font-Bold='True' ForeColor='White' HorizontalAlign='Left' />     <PagerStyle BackColor='#284775' ForeColor='White' HorizontalAlign='Center' />     <RowStyle BackColor='#F7F6F3' ForeColor='#333333' />     <SelectedRowStyle BackColor='#E2DED6' Font-Bold='True' ForeColor='#333333' /> </asp:GridView>

Thanks in advance, for any of your ideas/comments.

EDIT
Requirements do not allow for paging of the data. I am also looking for specific information on CSS utilization and the GridView…

  1. Don’t use the GridView. If you want control, use the Repeater.
