Re: Where to set GridView.PageIndex first time control is displayed

Hi Klein,

Thank you very much for your suggestion and code sample.

I can see that you are using SqlDataSource. I am using model binding with EF. I have tried the following code:

<asp:GridViewID="gridViewGuestEntries"runat="server"

ItemType="NavisWeb.Guest_Entries"

DataKeyNames="ID"

AutoGenerateColumns="false"

AllowPaging="true"

AllowSorting="false"

SelectMethod="gridViewGuestEntries_GetData"

OnPreRender="gridViewGuestEntries_PreRender"....

Code behind:

protectedvoid gridViewGuestEntries_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if (!IsPostBack)

{

if (gridViewGuestEntries.PageCount > 1)

gridViewGuestEntries.PageIndex = gridViewGuestEntries.PageCount - 1;

}

}

PageIndex is properly set, but in gridview first page is displayed and not the last.

Pager buttons show that the last page is selected which is not the case.
