synchronise pagination 1

[stephenk1973]

I have a a large data set which i have split into two gridviews, one stationary, one horizontally scrollable. How can i get the pagination of both to synchronise?


Would be grateful of any examples or suggestions.

Thanks
Stephen

The GridView control has a PageIndexChanged event, so you can presumably find the relevant page that it has changed to from this event, and then change the second gridview's page to this value.

Found the event not sure how i can use it.

Any idea how you would capture the page being changed to? Would gridview1 have to change first before the second page thought about changing. Is there a way of calling both events at the same time?

If you convert the sender object to a GridView, you should be able to access it's PageInex property which will show you the current page that it is displaying. Use this value to change the second GridView's page.

Is what you want to do simply to sync the grids when the user selects a different page? Or am I missing something that is more complicated?

I simply created a page, dropped 2 gridviews on it. Set the datasource of each grid to the same datasource. Then wrote some simple code to keep the grids synced.

Protected Sub GridView1_PageIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles GridView1.PageIndexChanged
   GridView2.PageIndex = GridView1.PageIndex
End Sub

Protected Sub GridView2_PageIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles GridView2.PageIndexChanged
   GridView1.PageIndex = GridView2.PageIndex
End Sub
