Find total no. of records in a gridview

[cmrhema]

hello
I am using a gridview to display records.
I have set page index for the grid.
I have populated the gridview.
After every 10 records I will move to the next page.
All these works fine.

Now I want to place total no. of records in the gridview in a label.
I tried to use page count but it gives ambigous result.

eg. I have say 68 records. So I will have 7 pages.
I want to place a label saying that I have 68 records and details are in the gridview.
But the page count says 70 records.
Kindly let me know how to find the "count of rows "populated in the gridview.

Regards
cmrhema

Thank you both for the prompt reply

Unfortunately, I did not make one important point clear.

The catch is I have not attached to any database.

The customers will be filling the datas in the grid for which the values will be stored in temporary datatable(which will not be inserted in a database at present).

now when the customer clicks the submit button, All the records in the gridview will be updated.

For this I should know how many records he has entered so that I can place a for loop and insert the respective datas.

After inserting 10 records the grid view will move to the next page
Assume the customer enters two more records
So the count is 12 and page count is 2.

But the moment we use page count it gives 2*10=20 records.

But the answer is 12 not 20.
I hope I made myself clear

Are you keeping a track of the page number the user is in?
If yes then you would need

numRecords = 10 * (current_page_number -1) + (gridView1.RowCount);

Please also consider the reply from mzmishra..you will the total number of rows entered by the user
