How to do datalist paging using linq to sql and datalist in asp 3.5?

I'm using datalist in my application and i'm binding datalist with lisq to sql

dim db=new linqdatacontext(); var products=from p in db.products select p; datalist.datasource=products; datalist.databind();

now how can i do paging in my datalist?

Solution

  • Use keywords Take and Skip

    var products=from p in db.products select p 
             Skip NUMER_TO_START Take NUMBER_TO_TAKE

    Very simple, consider there are 1000 rows of results in p, and Skip 50 means you are not going take results #1-#50, and it will give you results from #51, Take is simply how many records you need.
