How to display Message when Dataset is Null

I have an asp.net page using a repeater control to display a dataset. When
the dataset returned is null (no records matched the criteria) I want to
display a message to the effect "No matching records found". I can't figure
out how to do this.

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Add a DIV tag as HTMLGeneric with runat set to server. Before you bind to
the repeater check to see if the dataset is empty. If it is turn on the DIV
tags display property and turn off the repeater.
