Best way to retain scroll position in Datagrids?

[DLLHell]

What would be the best method to re-display a datagrid as-is (i.e. when an error occurred in a Edit textbox) without having the grid re-display starting at the first row?

Thanks for any info or suggestions on this.

As long as viewstate is enabled (which is the default) a datagrid will not repopulate itself from a postback.

Are you trapping any errors so the user stays on the current page? This would be my recommendation.

I have the grid's EnableViewState=false and I am using
<%@ Page SmartNavigation=&quot;true&quot; %>

That works well in the Update event however when the Edit event finishes it will not show the Edit textboxes unless I repopulate the datagrid. Any idea how to force it to show the textboxes without having to repopulate the grid?

I would recommend setting EnableViewState = True. This should give you what you are looking for.
