Answer / vijay

we have to use a dataset because on using datareader
forward only paging can be achieved. Suppose if you are at
1000 page and you want to go back to 999th page, if you use
datareader it cannot be achieved, since it does not support
backward navigation.
Dataset supports forward and backward navigation

Answer / ashok

This can be done using following ways. Mainly its base on
multitreading environment.

1. Declare delegate (I am using Async delegate)
2. Start a new thread which will gets a data information in
collection or we can fill the dataset.
3. In main thread you can keep polling to the datafill
thread whether the operation is complete or not.
4. with IAsyncResult we can find whether the thread which we
started earlier has completed the assigned task or not.

Answer / renjith t n

You need to look at ROW_NUMBER() to do this effectively.
Temp tables, cursors are to costly.

CREATE PROCEDURE myProc

@StartIndex INT
@MaxRecords INT

AS

SET @StartIndex = @StartIndex + 1

SELECT
first_name,
last_name,
middle_init
FROM
(SELECT
first_name,
last_name,
middle_init
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY last_name)
AS rownum
FROM
Users)
AS Users
WHERE
rownum between @StartIndex and (@StartIndex + @MaxRecords) -
1

Then we can use Dataset for best performance..

Create a stored procedure with parameter page size and current page index.Get the lower bound and upper bound of the page by using following formula

Lower bound=Pagesize*PageIndex+1
Upper Bound=lowerbound+pagesize

call this Stored Procedure on every paging event of gridview.
