Populate datagrid with values obtained from DAL, enable pagination

[OceanBreeze]

I am new to .Net. I am using ASP 2.0 and C#.

I want to pupolate a data grid programatically using the values obtained from a list conating domain objects.

E.g., DAL.GetEmployee () returns a List of all Employee object. Each Employee object has two attributes (ID and Name).

I drop a data grid control on ASP.Net Web form.

Data grid will have 2 columns - one to display ID, another to display Name of employee.

How can I accomplish it within C# code on server side to populate that data grid on web form with
the values from the list?

How can I add pagination on the data grid?

E.g. each page in the data grid only displays 30 employees. 31st employee is displayed in the next page by
paginating through the data grid.

So, my questios are:
1) How can I bind the values obtaiendthe from the list to the datagrid in web form?
2) How can I do pagination in the data grid?

If datagrid is complicated, can a table control in ASP.Net provide me pagination? If yes, how?

I will appreciate help with code snippet as i am new to this.

For the datagrid, simply use the datagrid.dataso urce = list name and then databind().

Here is a good intro to paging - Paging Support in the DataGrid

Hope that this helps.
